    Loveland School District names Brian Conatser athletic director

    Former interim to lead in permanent capacity

    Loveland, Ohio – The Loveland City School District announced today that Brian Conatser – a longtime Tiger – as the permanent district director of student athletics. Conatser, who has 12 years of experience growing Loveland student-athletes in his work as a varsity coach, served as the athletic director in an interim capacity during the 2017-18 school year following the February announcement that District Director of Student Athletics Julie Renner accepted a position outside education with FinalForms, a national athletic management solution company.

    “Loveland High School is known in the Eastern Cincinnati Conference for our robust athletic program, and Mr. Conatser proved to Tiger Nation that he has what it takes to lead this program forward,” said Loveland High School Principal Peggy Johnson.

    Conatser began serving the district in 2006 as a teacher at Loveland High School (LHS). During that time Conatser was a member of the varsity football coaching team, and worked as the LHS strength and conditioning coach. He transitioned from his teaching role to work as the LHS Innovative Instructional Coach during the 2015-16 school year, before joining the administrative team in the role of assistant director of student athletics in 2016. Conatser has a Bachelor’s of Education in Health Promotion from the University of Cincinnati, a Master’s of Education in Secondary Education from Xavier University, and a Master’s of Education in Educational Leadership from American College of Education.

    “I love this district, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to grow our already outstanding athletic program for our students, our parents, our community, and our staff,” said Conatser. “It is a great time to be a Tiger!”

    March 1st will be Julie Renner Day at Loveland High School

    Loveland, Ohio – Loveland High School (LHS) has announced that District Director of Student Athletics Julie Renner has accepted a position with FinalForms, a national athletic management solution company, and her final day will be March 2.


    “I would not be telling the truth if I said this was an easy decision; the last four and a half years I have spent at Loveland have been a blessing,” said Renner. “My husband took a new position at Marshall University this past summer, moving our family home to West Virginia. Therefore, I have accepted this new position so we can live together as a family.

    “Loveland High School is a wonderful school, in an outstanding district and community. I cannot say enough about the caring school staff and coaching staff that I have been privileged to work with over these past four years. Moreover, the parents, adults and Booster organizations who work so hard to support this school to make it the best place for not just a few kids but for all students. I will miss the students so much. They hold a special place in my heart and many memories which will be forever stamped in my mind.”

    “We often say, ‘Once a Tiger, always a Tiger’ and this is certainly true of our feelings for Mrs. Renner,” said LHS Principal Peggy Johnson. “We – the administration, the staff and the students – will certainly miss the spirit she has brought to this role, but we are also so excited for this unique professional opportunity for her.”

    Renner has served the district in the position of director of student athletics since 2013, and has helped manage a state champion football team, a state champion wrestler, and a state champion womens soccer team during her tenure.

    “I would like to extend my gratitude to the Board of Education, the Loveland Athletic Boosters, the Athletic Department and the entire administrative team,” said Renner. “I would like to thank everyone for making my work environment enjoyable and giving me the opportunity to work with students every day. I greatly appreciate all of your support and guidance over the tenure of my employment.” 

    The district will announce a transition plan in the very near future.

  • Champions Tour through Loveland for Loveland Women Division I State Soccer Champs

    Champions Tour through Loveland for Loveland Women Division I State Soccer Champs

    Dear Loveland Community and Tiger Nation, 

    We want to make you aware of the plans in place to honor our outstanding State Champion Lady Tigers Soccer Team. The student-athletes and their coaches have requested to conduct a Champions Tour through our school district and community on Friday, Dec. 8. Loveland police and fire officials will be escorting the team during this tour, which includes the following stops:

    ·         8:30 – 8:45 a.m. – Loveland Elementary School

    ·         8:45 – 9 a.m. – Loveland Primary School

    ·         9:15 – 9:30 a.m. – Loveland Early Childhood Center

    ·         9:45 – 10 a.m. – Loveland Middle School

    ·         10:15 – 11 a.m. – Loveland Board Office

    ·         11 – 11:15 a.m. – Loveland Intermediate School

    ·         2 – 2:20 p.m. – Loveland High School (There will be a video shown in the gym which highlights the season and the journey.)

    Please feel free to join us at any of the stops we are making along the tour. 

    The team made the decision to proceed in this fashion because they want an opportunity to thank Tiger Nation for supporting and cheering for them during this amazing state run, and the two dates proposed for a community parade were in direct conflict with plans the girls had that could not be rearranged.

    Additionally, the Loveland Board of Education will recognize the State Champion Lady Tigers Soccer Team at the 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 12, Board Business Meeting held at the Loveland Intermediate School Media Center. All members of the Tiger Family are invited to attend this event.

    Symmes Township is recognizing the winning team 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 5, at a Township meeting. Tuesday, Jan. 9, Loveland City Council will honor the team at the scheduled city council meeting, and 7 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 16, Miami Township has also invited the team to join them at one of their business meetings.  

    The Loveland Athletic Department will induct the entire 2017 Lady Tigers Soccer Team into our Loveland High School Athletic Hall of Fame during halftime of our Tiger basketball games vs. Kings Friday, Dec. 15.

    Finally, our Loveland Athletic Boosters are generously going to purchase State Championship rings for our student-athletes and coaches. When the rings come in, we will organize a public ring ceremony event, where all are welcome.

    We are so proud of the Lady Tigers Soccer Team accomplishments and all they have achieved. Please help us celebrate their success at one of the above events, and for the events currently unscheduled, please look for additional details to come.

    My Best and Go Tigers!

    Girls team takes the podium as best in Ohio

    Loveland, Ohio – The Loveland Middle School (LMS) Girls Cross Country Team won the title of State Champions at the State Junior High Cross Country meet Sunday, Oct. 22.

    “I am so excited to win the state trophy,” said LMS Eighth Grade Student Maaike Snider. “Thank you to the coaches and parents for everything. It has been a great season!”

    Meet the State Champions

    Sarah Madix, Allison Colegate, Ellie Zicka, Bella Dillhof, Jessie Gibbins, Maaike Snider, and Lindsey Dwyer

    Snider was one of three student-athletes who finished in the top 15 overall. The group included:  Jessie Gibbins (fifth place); Maaike Snider (seventh place) and Sarah Madix (11th place).

    “We are extremely excited about both of our cross country teams at LMS,” said LMS Principal Chuck Ogdan. “These student-athletes have gone above and beyond in the classroom and on the field of competition! They are true examples of our building’s four core values: grit, rise, innovation and leadership. Go Tigers!”

    “Coach Steve Federman and Coach Carol Adams, along with all of our LMS cross country coaches do such a great job working with, training and developing our runners and student-athletes,” said Loveland District Director of Student Athletics Julie Renner. “They start way before our kids join the LMS cross country team. They get them excited during Runners Club in the elementary and intermediate schools. The success of our seventh through 12th grade Girls and Boys Cross Country programs are due to the hard work and dedication of so many who are role-models for our kids, in building up the sport not only as competitive but also as a life-long activity for our student-athletes.”
