"Multiculturalism is part of the fabric of this School. It is not an add-on; it is not represented by one course. It is present everywhere." — Academic Dean Ingrid Dorer Fitzpatrick

Here's a challenge to you: It is impossible to be bored at Latin. Why? There are just so many opportunities to get involved in so many things. On top of the spectacular curricular offerings is a wonderful array of extra-curricular activities, high caliber athletic teams, serious and fun performing arts opportunities, community service partnerships, and school clubs.

You will learn to balance your interests and activities, while finding others who share them. You will have an opportunity to play on a championship team, compete alongside some of the best athletes in the state, perform in plays, musical concerts, dance concerts, and poetry readings, travel to state and national academic competitions, show your art work in a gallery, present your research to scientific peers, and help serve people and programs that are trying to make a difference in the lives of Chicagoans.
