We believe in whole child education, where every student’s emotional, physical, and social well-being is as important as his or her intellectual progress. In fact, we recognize that academic achievement is inextricably linked to the emotional, physical, and social factors that shape each student’s ability to fully engage and thrive in school.
We believe that our talented and dedicated employees are a treasured resource and that we must remain committed to their success, growth, and well-being.
We believe that all students can lead. Leadership is a state of mind that is not tied to position or perceived status. It is reflected by one’s commitment to act in a manner that empowers and celebrates others and improves our world.
The future of Latin provides practical, experiential opportunities that allow students to apply content knowledge through investigation, to engage in perspective-taking, to think critically, and to learn from their successes and failures. What students can do and how they respond to challenges are as important as what they know.
The future of our world is increasingly diverse and driven by a global innovation economy. Our students must be prepared for cross-cultural interactions in academic, social, and professional settings with people whose lived experiences inform differing perspectives.
A school community with the resources of Charlotte Latin has a responsibility to produce conscientious citizens who can contribute to the world with purpose and passion and, as an institution, model that commitment to the community.
