A strong foundation in Latin prepares our students to engage with the classics, advanced English literature, and foreign languages. It’s also a springboard for many careers, including medicine, science, theology, arts, and literature. 

Students who learn Latin often achieve: 

  • An earlier grasp of the English language, including vocabulary, sentence structure, and grammar.
  • A stronger foundation for learning Romance languages such as French and Spanish.
  • A solid connection between shared Western heritage and a deeper appreciation for other cultures.
  • Improvement in academic performance, focus, and examinations as a result of sharpening their methodical and analytical skills.

  • Extensive training of administrators and teachers.

  • A growing and supportive network of schools and teachers across the country
  • Semi-annual board development training
