Business Advisory Council
The Loveland City School District is part of the Greater Cincinnati Busines Advisory Council. This group, as well as the Loveland Business Advisory Committee, offer a partnership between district leadership and community business leaders to ensure our students learn the skills to prepare them for future jobs.
The Loveland Business Advisory Council was awarded 3-Stars by the State of Ohio for 2023-2024.
Relationships are at the heart of what we do in Loveland City Schools. By developing and maintaining relationships with the local business community, the district can stay aware of changes in the economy and job market and get input on developing curriculum to ensure students are ready for the real world. The Business Advisory Council also helps guide our Loveland Tiger Pathways experiential learning program, which places students in local businesses for job shadowing, internships, and volunteer opportunities to provide real-world workforce experience.
Local business professionals are encouraged to become members of our Business Advisory Council to help develop the next generation of exceptional employees for our Loveland community and beyond.
