Latin Community Values
Our shared values of excellence, community
and integrity affirm and define us. They serve
as guideposts for all we do, and connect us
— students, teachers, parents and alumni —
to each other and to Latin.
EXCELLENCE
We value learning as a process of meaningful
inquiry, reflection on feedback, and striving
to improve.
COMMUNITY
We value inclusion because each one of us
is a resource and inspiration for learning and
social action.
INTEGRITY
We value honesty and sincerity because
our choices shape the lives of others in
our community.
Dear Prospective Families
& Students,
For 131 years, Latin has continually redefined excellence in
liberal arts education for a changing world. Our vision for the
2019–20 school year challenges us to make learning even more
personal, inquiry-based and inclusive for every member of the
Latin community — all Latin Learners.
We create the conditions for this type of learning by utilizing our
innovative curriculum, broad range of extra curricular programs
(artistic, athletic and academic), innovative teaching methods
and thoughtfully-designed spaces to ensure the growth,
wellness and achievement of each student.
As a result, Latin learners are conscious and proactive about
their learning and develop critical skills that serve them not just
in college, but for a lifetime.
Are you ready to be a Latin learner?
