The Latin School of Chicago is a small, private elementary, middle and high school in the Gold Coast neighborhood in Chicago.
The School was founded in 1888 by a small group of mothers wanting to establish a school for the education of their sons, which had until that time been primarily the provence of either private tutors or eastern boarding schools.
At least one year of Latin is required of all pupils in 6th grade and the high school curruculum requires four years of English and a minimum of three years of other subjects.

The Latin School was formed in 1888 when a group of parents in Chicago, concerned about the quality of their children's education, enlisted Mabel Slade Vickery, a teacher from the East Coast, to take charge of a new, parent-owned school.
The School was designed to provide students with a rigorous college-preparatory education in the classical tradition, with a curriculum that was heavily influenced by classical studies and the study of the Greek and Latin languages.
