[quote=Anonymous]Latin's founders made a commitment to physically reach children from every quadrant of the city. Not only location-wise, but also with hub bus service that they only began charging moderately for two years ago. (Latin is pretty unique among charters to factor the provision of transportation into its access goals). Over the years, the school and parents have faced our perpetually stretched budget by getting creative--parents painting and cleaning the school with supplies we donated, to make it a halfway decent learning environment for kids and faculty. The idea that WL has ever been champagne days and caviar nights is pretty humorous. However, we enjoy it precisely for what it is and for what we see it becoming--a school with a strong urban classics identity. It's not KIPP and it's not Walls and it's not Wilson and it's not Banneker. It's Latin. Sumus Leones! [/quote]
