Latin School of Chicago

About Us
Welcome from the Head
One thing we hear often from students is that Latin feels like home to them, and for years our alumni have reported the same.

Strategic Priorities
Our strategic priorities are educational excellence, wellness as a foundation for education, community engagement and inclusive and supportive community.
Admissions
Chicago, Our Classroom
Latin School is truly "of Chicago." Our students explore the city and partner with local universities, labs, museums and more.

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
19
We are proud to host 19 performing arts productions and concerts in a year. This includes seven theater productions and 12 musical performances by our talented students.

Pursue a Passion
Arts programs inspire creativity, encourage students to pursue their passions and provide avenues to develop new skills.
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.
