[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"As a classical school, we align ourselves with the established wisdom of the ancients, particularly the cultures of Greece and Rome." How much attention does Washington Latin pay to the established wisdom of other ancient cultures outside of the cultures of Greece and Rome? This is one of the things that makes me hesitate to put my non-white kid into Latin. But maybe my hesitation is unwarranted?[/quote] This got lost, but it feels significant. This school appeals to "European" descended Americans. FWIW I'm a UMC non white person and am probably not going to add Latin to our lottery list for this reason.[/quote] If people like that actively seek out ways to take offense at everything stay away, it will only help Latin both in the classroom and in their test scores. Good school strategy.[/quote]
