Latin School of Chicago

About Us
Welcome from the Head

Latin continually redefines excellence in liberal arts education for a changing world. Our vision challenges us to make learning even more personal, inquiry-based and inclusive for every member of the Latin community — all Latin Learners.

Our Vision

To achieve our vision for educational excellence, our strategy is to LEAD by creating an inclusive, equitable and healthy culture for challenging and engaging learning.
Admissions
Excellence, Community, Integrity

Our shared values of excellence, community and integrity affirm and define us. They serve as guideposts for all we do, and connect us — students, teachers, parents and alumni — to each other and to Latin.

Life Beyond Latin
Our students not only succeed in college and in the workplace, but also lead lives of purpose and excellence.
Academics
Academic Excellence
Our students benefit from small classes led by talented faculty and an array of classes and opportunities that are not available anywhere else.

Meet Our Faculty & Staff
Two qualities our faculty & staff share: an unmistakable warmth and affection for their students and a commitment to their success.
Athletics
Athletic Skills, Life Lessons
At Latin we believe that sports present many opportunities for teaching not only athletics skills, but also life lessons.

Successful Student Athletes
In the last four years, more than 45 Latin student athlete graduates have continued their athletic careers in college.
Arts
Pursue a Passion
Arts programs inspire creativity, encourage students to pursue their passions and provide avenues to develop new skills.

40+
We are proud to host 40+ performing arts productions and concerts in a year. This includes theater productions and musical performances by our talented students.
Support Latin
Thank You
Your support for Latin allows us to fulfill our mission: helping students lead lives of purpose and excellence.

Invest in Latin's Future
Tomorrow is now! And now is the time for us to imagine everything Latin could be through the strength and flexibility of endowment.

Thank You for Attending Our Virtual Info Sessions

While we wish we could have met prospective families in person this fall, in consideration of safety and in response to COVID-19, we have conducted our admissions process virtually this year. In October and November 2020, Latin held a series of information sessions for families applying to Junior Kindergarten (JK) and Middle/Upper school grades to learn more about the Latin experience. These sessions included remarks and information from the Head of School, Division Director and Director of Enrollment Management as well as a Q&A. If you weren't able to join us for one of these sessions, please email admissions@latinschool.org to request a recording of a JK, Middle or Upper School information session.
