Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

The diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives at Latin School of Chicago play a crucial role in fulfilling the key aspect of our strategic plan that is focused on cultivating “...a more inclusive and supportive climate for all constituents.”

These efforts are aligned with our goal of empowering all individuals within the school community—especially those who have been historically marginalized—to have a voice and thrive.

Latin is committed to cultivating a culture that is welcoming, inclusive, and promotes a strong sense of belonging. We are also committed to advancing this important goal through our curriculum. We accomplish this by providing our students with opportunities for observation and self-reflection, exposure to diverse perspectives, and access to immersive learning experiences that enable them to better understand themselves, each other, and the world around them.
