Support at Every Step Even as students gain confidence, strengthen their self- advocacy skills and become more independent, they continue to benefit from a collaborative network of adults dedicated to their success. Deans, counselors, learning specialists and college counselors work together to help every student thrive academically, socially and emotionally. Personalized guidance from these dedicated educators, together with support from the school's academic support centers, helps students navigate challenges, make informed choices and develop into critical thinkers, thoughtful leaders and lifelong learners. Deans and counselors provide personalized guidance throughout high school. Academic support centers and learning specialists help students strengthen skills and reach their goals. College counselors support students and families throughout the college search process. Faculty and staff partner with families to help students realize their potential and prepare them for the future. Choosing a college is one of the most important decisions students and families make. The same personalized approach that defines the Upper School experience extends to the college search, helping students identify colleges that align with their interests, strengths and aspirations. • Four dedicated college counselors • Approximately 30 students per counselor (Illinois average: 522 students per counselor) • College counseling courses for all second-semester juniors and first-semester seniors provide structured guidance throughout the college search and application process • More than 100 colleges and universities visit Latin each fall, allowing seniors to explore a wide range of schools without leaving campus • Every college application is individually reviewed by a college counselor before submission • All four counselors bring professional experience in selective college admissions • Cum Laude Society and Erasmus Society • Winter Carnival • Big Games and Field Day Frenzy • Community Seder • Life After Latin • Class retreats • Class Day • Senior Luncheon Traditions and Community Latin School of Chicago Viewbook 2026–27 | 13
