[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The right boys at St. Anselm's are the ones from families with 35K/year to throw at it and an aptitude for a dead language (Latin). Their Fi Aid is weak and their modern languages aren't too hot. [/quote] Right, I hear you, but the same can be said for Latin Charter, no? Obv. it's for free, but seems like the same type of student. [/quote] Not the same at all. Latin is much more like a typical high school experience with sports and girls. It's a bigger school and feels bigger. And because Latin is lottery, there are many less academically gifted students. There is no requirement of aptitude or enthusiasm for studying Latin or anything else. And plenty of people at Latin aren't there for the Latin. They're there because it's a good school and they can lock down a high school path for their family and not have to deal with selective admissions public schools.[/quote]
