The purpose of the Lovett Parent Association is to foster interest among parents in support of The Lovett School and to engage in activities promoting and assisting the educational, religious, and physical development and enrichment of all students. The LPA generates funds that provide enhancements beyond the school budgets and provides volunteer services to enrich the overall life of the school community. Leadership of the LPA is slated by committee from a pool of parents who express interest through a self-nominating process in January of each year. Annual dues are $35. General meetings are held in September and in February.
Programs of the LPA include:
Lovett Cares
Lovett Cares is a volunteer committee to ensure that the needs of members of the Lovett family are met in a time or crisis.These volunteers will cook and deliver a well-balanced meal to a family in need. If you know of a student, faculty, or staff member whose family has suffered a death in the family, a major surgery/prolonged hospitalization, or a traumatic event from flood, fire, etc., please let Chair Beth Tucker know at bethgtucker@comcast.net. All information is kept confidential.
Cook and Love It Cookbook
Cook and Love It combines the charm of Southern hospitality with the fast-paced lifestyles of modern families. Created by parents for parents, Cook and Love It first hit stores in 1976 as a highly acclaimed series of recipes for busy families--families with a taste for more than just the average hamburger! From traditional sweet potato souffle to exotic Chablis cheddar soup, this unique collection of recipes reflects the changing face of the South. Cook and Love It retails for $16.95 and can be purchased through the Lovett Campus Store. Cook and Love It More, the second Lovett cookbook, is no longer available.
