around school 6 News & Notes Do You Know? My Story Arts Athletics Around School Keep on top of all the latest happenings in and out of the classroom at Latin. The New Latin Magazine Have you noticed that something looks better about Latin Magazine, but you can't quite put your finger on it? It looks fresher? Well-rested? Younger, even? Well, we've had a facelift this winter, and we're not ashamed to admit it! Based on input we received from our readership survey last fall, we partnered with a local firm, Bark Design, to update our look and add new departments to better showcase the most wonderful things about Latin. The changes we are incorporating will allow us to better celebrate the history of our school, spotlight the unique academic experiences Latin provides, highlight our amazing faculty and staff, and provide an outlet for the many talented writers in our community. Here are some of the new departments to look for: • My Story – teachers like Dr. Dolezal taught thousands of students to love writing and do it well. This new department is a way of highlighting this rich tradition of writing at Latin. Each issue will feature a personal essay submitted by a current student, faculty, staff or alum. (Submissions are being accepted now!) • Do You Know? – for years our "Up Close" interview with a faculty or staff member occupied the last page of our magazine. Now you will find it closer to the front and partnered with a highlight from our curriculum. Putting these side by side shows that it is both amazing people and educational experiences that make Latin so special. • Looking Back – formerly known as "From the Archives," we will now utilize the last two pages of each issue to look back on our wonderful 126-year history, featuring stories and photos from our archives. Thanks again to all who shared your thoughts in our readership survey. We hope you like our new look and content as much as we do! – The Latin Communications Team What is it you most like about Latin Magazine? I feel it connects the community in a very positive way."
