Founded in 1888, Latin School is the oldest
independent day school in Chicago. The school
was designed to provide students with a
rigorous college-preparatory education in the
classical tradition, with a curriculum that was
heavily influenced by Classical studies and the
study of the Greek and Latin languages, hence
the name "Latin School."
Latin started in a private home on Chicago's
North Side serving ten 10-year-old boys.
Today, Latin is home to approximately 1,100
young men and women in grades junior
kindergarten through 12 from throughout the
Chicago area. The school continues to follow
its tradition of excellence while providing
innovative programming and a rich variety
of extracurricular and athletics activities in
state-of-the-art facilities.
