Loveland, Ohio – Hey there Loveland! Not sure if everyone has heard the news but Loveland High School has gotten a new principal for the 2023-2024 school year. I decided we needed to get a little interview with Mr. David Spencer and see what he is all about, don’t you agree?
I interviewed Mr.Spencer along with our superintendent Mr. Mike Broadwater in an effort to welcome him to the community and to get to know him. Before we get to the interview, here are a few things that were discussed.
I asked Mr. Spencer about his background, where he grew up, how he got into teaching, and basic questions you would ask when getting to know someone. I also touched base with Mr. Broadwater about what changes there were going to be at the Loveland Schools after the Levy passed this last May.
Below is the video interview! Press play and get to know all the details regarding new changes and the new principal.
“Best Short Story” award winner Mahi Sheth knows a thing or two about writing! Mahi is a creative writer whose favorite part about writing is the way words come together to form a story. In Mahi’s downtime, she loves to read and dance. Mahi is a Junior at William Mason High School.
Loveland, Ohio – On Saturday, Loveland Chief of Police Michael Gabrielson generously gave us some time and visited the LOVELAND MAGAZINE TV studio to be interviewed by Reporter Mahi Sheth.
Sheth asked the Chief about his childhood, educational background, what led him to his career in law enforcement, and what was his toughest case as an undercover cop.
Also:
Sheth: “What should a police officer do no matter what?
Gabrielson: “We give officers two badges, one for their chest and one for their hat. One badge is for their…”
Her final question was a personal one as she is interested in becoming an FBI agent.

Summer is coming up quickly meaning it’s time to start planning your reading list! For those who enjoy reading a great novel while laying in the sun, I’ve got the perfect Young Adult (YA) romance novel by Kasie West to keep you company.
Sunkissed is a contemporary romance novel about a girl named Avery. Avery, who has just started summer vacation, comes across a whole slew of problems unexpectedly! From dealing with a betrayal from a best friend to two months with no wifi to having a crush on a mysterious, frustratingly charming guy named Brooks who happens to be off-limits, Avery’s entire life gets turned upside down. When Brooks offers Avery a chance at finding out what she wants and who she wants to be, she finds that falling in love isn’t so bad after all.
In the novel, West manages to capture both the problems teens face and the reaction one would feel after being betrayed by a best friend. Sunkissed is a coming-of-age novel that I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys reading about young teens finding their place in the world, guys who have a talent for music, and those with a passion for love!
If you think Sunkissed sounds interesting, here are a few similar novels by Kasie West and other authors:
The Upside Of Falling by Alex Light
Seventeen-year-old book-lover, Becca believes in true love and fairytales while Brett, the captain of the football team, just wants to get through high school without a girlfriend distracting him. When Becca gets caught in a lie, Brett helps her out. A fake relationship should be easy, right? That’s until Becca and Brett’s true feelings come into play! (Cover provided by Amazon)
Maybe This Time by Kasie West
A small-town girl named Sophie wants to go to the big apple to pursue her dream of being a fashion designer.

Fireworks explode when these two are together! Can Sophie and Andrew play nice after attending several Rockside events together? (Cover provided by Goodreads)
The Distance Between Us by Kasie West

Loveland, Ohio – This generation will change the world in more ways than one! One of the best ways to help mold and develop this generation’s skillsets is to give them opportunities to fine-tune their crafts. Here at Loveland Magazine, we thought one of the best ways we could make an impact on this generation is by creating an official Internship Program!
When I first began job searching after I graduated with degrees in Journalism, Marketing, and English, one of the questions I often heard in interviews or on applications was, “How much experience do you have” or “How many years of experience do you have?” Well in my mind it was pretty obvious what the response would be, “Well I just graduated from college so I haven’t had the opportunity to dive into the workforce with my degree and get experience, which is why I’m applying for this position!” How can an employer expect someone to get experience if they aren’t given the opportunity to get experience? I dealt with this dilemma for years as I was coming up in the Journalism world as every job I seemed to apply for was given to someone who had “more experience.” It was so frustrating and quite frankly demeaning as I had just spent all that time in college busting my butt to graduate with a 4.0 thinking that I would immediately land a job right after graduation.
Fast forward several years I eventually started to get opportunities but began to recognize the reason I was getting opportunities was due to all the internships I started to rack up on my resume, one being in high school for the Journal News-Middletown Journal. After becoming part-owner of Loveland Magazine, I began to think about how I could continue (my partner David Miller had students in the past intern with him) to help students get Journalism experience before they graduated but on a grander scale. I thought maybe I could help these students in some way avoid jumping over all the hurdles I had to in order to get an opportunity in journalism. That’s when the light bulb went off and the Loveland Magazine Internship Program came into conception!
With help from local schools, administrators, teachers, community members, a beautiful flyer made by David Miller, and the release of my article letting our readers know we were starting an official internship program, the word spread fast! Before we knew it we had several emails coming in every day asking for more information on the intern program and what it took to be considered. I must say it was amazing seeing how many local talented students were looking to jump-start their future with an internship! Like I said previously, this generation will change the world!
After careful consideration, I selected 5 inspirational, hard-working, motivated, and creative future journalists. Thus far we have had several meetings learning everything from taking a great headshot to writing an attention-grabbing bio to brainstorming for a feature story! I learned very quickly how impressive these 5 students are as well as how much diversity each one brings to their writing. Each one of these students brings something different to the journalism table and luckily all of our readers will get a chance to see their growth and development right before their very eyes!
One of the first assignments that I gave the 5 interns was to take a great headshot of themselves and write their own bio. After taking in my feedback and revising both their bios and headshots several times, I couldn’t be more pleased with what they have produced! I wanted to be sure that we published as much of these interns’ work as possible so that they could begin to build their professional portfolios, which is a MUST HAVE in journalism! So without further ado, I would like to welcome you to the “Intern Spotlight,” where our readers get to take the time to get to know our 2022 student interns! Be sure to give these interns a wave if you see them out in the community and of course stay tuned to their next assignment which will be their first feature story!
