Portrait of a Latin Learner
One of the primary outcomes of our strategic planning efforts was the creation of our Portrait of Latin Learner.
The Portrait conveys what students should know and be able to do during their time at Latin. It applies to every student at our school, which enables us to monitor and measure their growth and progress over an extended period of time. It is focused on a student’s entire educational journey, including curricular and co-curricular activities, which helps promote greater consistency and alignment across our three divisions. It also aids in the assessment of each student's current learning levels and future goals, which fosters increased collaboration among the faculty, staff and parents/guardians who guide and support their education.
The following are the data-driven competencies that make up the Portrait of a Latin Learner. See how they contribute to the success of our students and put them at the heart of everything we do.
