Lovett: At Our Best

Mission

The Lovett School is a community of belonging that develops students of honor, faith, and wisdom with the character and intellect to thrive in learning and life.

Founded in 1926 by Eva Edwards Lovett, we continue today as an Atlanta independent school serving children in Kindergarten through Grade 12. With an emphasis on the whole child, we provide integrated experiences in academics, arts, athletics, and service through an education grounded in learning, character, and community.

Core Values

Lovett’s core values are the foundation of what we believe and do as an institution, a community, and a school.

Intellect: We value intellect as a lifelong pursuit of the cognitive, social, and emotional skills required to thrive in an increasingly complex world.

Purpose: We value purpose as the source of motivation for learning, the discovery of self, and the foundation of a meaningful life.

Belonging: We value belonging, in a diverse community where all members feel connected, included, supported, and respected.

Faith: We value faith as the foundation of spiritual and moral values that lead to ethical decision making and perseverance in the face of challenge.

Love: We value love to cultivate joyful learning, strong character, and a compassionate, healthy community.
