    The Jazz bands will be playing a wide variety of tunes, such as the theme from “Family Guy” and a Stevie Wonder Medley. You all can enjoy Narrow Path’s wide variety of beers while listening to fun music and supporting the Loveland music program. 

    The High School’s concert bands have a fun variety of tunes as well, including the one and only theme song from “Star Wars”. They will have interim superintendent Bradley Neavin guest conduct a piece as well.

    These two outdoor, COVID-19 friendly events are a great way for all of you to support the wonderful music program in Loveland, and see what they do.

    The music program in the Loveland City Schools wants to bring the music to the public instead of bringing the public to the music.

    I am involved in both the Jazz Orchestra and the Wind Ensemble at the High School, and it is so important for everyone involved in the bands to be able to share our hard work with everyone. Each and every person involved in the music program at Loveland loves music and loves making music. So getting to do these concerts is a really great opportunity. 

    I asked Bea Aldrich, a graduating senior, what her favorite part of the music program at Loveland is and she said she loves how “there are so many different opportunities for extracurriculars that anyone can find something they enjoy”.

    The program is just a really great outlet for so many people. That’s why it is important that we have the public’s support. With your support, we can keep doing what we love.

    So, if you want to have a fun time listening to some fantastic music, come support us on April 29th and May 4th!

    Loveland, Ohio – Congratulations to Loveland High School’s Bea Aldrich on earning the status of National Merit Semi-finalist!

    These academically talented high school seniors now have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,600 National Merit Scholarships worth more than $30 million that will be offered next spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship award, Semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. Over 90 percent of the Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and more than half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title.

    Over 1.5 million juniors in about 21,000 high schools entered the 2021 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2019 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT), which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of Semifinalists, representing less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest scoring entrants in each state. The number of Semifinalists in a state is proportional to the state’s percentage of the national total of graduating seniors.

    To become a Finalist, the Semifinalist and a high school official must submit a detailed scholarship application, in which they provide information about the Semifinalist’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and rewards received. A Semifinalist must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, and write an essay.
