@ "Full of over-entitled... " Player hater alert!!! Whoop Whoop!!! Yo, don't hate the players, hate the game. Petty. Out.
Full of over-entitled snotty rich kids with no world view. This school prides itself of open mindedness and being accepting, and lives up to it, that is if you are a certain kind of person. If on the other hand, you are not one of what they are used to seeing, you are not welcome here. This place is so un-diverse it is suffocating. It prepares kids for a type of world that does not exist.
My son's prior school was K- 8; so he started Latin for high school, and he has been very happy. They have a large selection of classes that are able to challenge him. The teachers will always make the time to meet with any student that takes the Initiative to ask for help. The total facilty of the school truly wants to see kids succeed, Yes the school is expensive, but your paying for the small class sizes, personal attention and amazing facilities. We have found the school to be very inviting, and my son has never found the Latin to be very cliquish or complained that any student has ever been mean to him or any of his friends. It's a place he feels happy and safe.
A pool of the smartest, most stylish, worldly, and talented kids I've ever met. Very selective and demanding. Teachers are professional and more than qualified. Facilities are top-notch. It's quite perfect. - a student at Latin
The curriculum is challenging. The atmosphere is is seriously playful. Students are taught to trust and express their own ideas. High standards are the norm. It's a community of learners.
