[quote=Anonymous]Latin's charter was written to stop accepting new students after 9th grade. Part of the reason it was written that way was because the graduation requirements were that students had to complete a minimum of 4 years of HS Latin (as well as other subjects) and were not equipped to catch up students who entered later. My understanding is that there was also a sense that parents were pulling their students to attend privates in 9th grade, with the attitude that, if they didn't think the quality of the private school was up to par, they could simply re-enroll at Latin. It was messing with the culture Latin wanted to engender in the HS with the large influx on 9th graders who were underprepared.[/quote]
