The other one credit must be earned during grades 10, 11, or 12 by taking PE classes, playing on Latin Athletics teams, and/or by participating in a consistent and rigorous athletic pursuit outside of school (an Independent Study or "ISP"). • Project Week – successful completion of a project required each year. Project Week During March, all upper school students participate in hands-on learning experiences around the globe, throughout the U.S. and in Chicago. Students are required to participate each year and expenses are subsidized for those who qualify. Due to COVID, 2022 included domestic and local project weeks only. Additional Opportunities: Independent Study Projects Students can work independently with a teacher to advance their interest and study in a variety of disciplines. These courses do not substitute for required classes. Interdisciplinary Courses Dance can count as either Performing Arts or PE. Teaching Practica In 2019, Latin unveiled an exciting new program. Students must submit proposals and are selected by the faculty to enroll in an individual teaching practicum. Selected students are paired with a mentor teacher in a subject they have previously mastered and are expected to assist faculty with developing lesson plans, delivering appropriate content or serving as a mentor to learners in the class. Seniors attend class on a regular basis and serve as faculty assistants; they are not graded, but are awarded academic credit for their work and time. Senior Projects This optional program encourages seniors to explore interests in and out of the classroom for several weeks at the end of the school year. At their culmination, all senior projects are publicly presented. Global Online Academy (GOA) Latin is a member of the Global Online Academy, a consortium of the world's leading independent schools whose mission is to translate into online classrooms the intellectually rigorous programs and excellent teaching that are hallmarks of its member schools. Courses and descriptions can be found at: globalonlineacademy. org. "GOA" classes will have this designation on their transcripts. Latin reports to colleges any disciplinary infraction that results in an out-of-school suspension or removal from the school. We also encourage all students to disclose information regarding any leave of absence or minor infraction.
