Board of Trustees
Charlotte Latin is governed by the Board of Trustees,
an appointed group that determines the School's policies. The Board
of Trustees is the guardian of the School's mission. It ensures
that the mission is relevant and vital to the CLS community, and
that the School is successful in fulfilling its mission. The Board
also oversees the School's strategic planning process and has the
fiduciary responsibility for approving the annual budget.
Board of Visitors
The Charlotte Latin School Board of Visitors was established to
support the School by enhancing its internal and external relationship
through charitable, educational and social endeavors. The Board
is comprised of former members of the Board of Trustees who wish
to serve as ambassadors for the School.
Parents’ Council
This volunteer organization utilizes the talents
and services of Latin parents to enhance their children’s
educational environment, and to offer materials and services for
the School and its students. Parents’ Council plans and executes
many of Latin’s special events, including the Fall Family
Picnic, the Book Fair, the Celebrate Art Auction, and May Day Play
Day, our annual spring carnival. Latin’s cookbooks, Cooking
With Class, Cooking With Class - A Second Helping,
and A Third Course - More Cooking With Class, are published
by the Parents’ Council, which also operates the Supply Nest
bookstore and manages Wednesday Watch, the School family communications
system. Due to the hard work and dedication of the Parents’
Council and its committees, these fun events also raise significant
funds that are directly invested in their children’s education.
Booster Club
This family organization supports the School’s
athletic program and promotes good sportsmanship among Latin’s
student athletes. Booster Club volunteers work on various fundraising
and service projects, including the annual Fall Barbecue Bash. Past
projects accomplished or supported by the club include a competition-quality
all-weather track, a field house and lighting for Patten Stadium,
a new wood floor for Belk Gymnasium, the South Campus Athletic Facility,
and the Beck Student Activities and Sports Center. Family memberships
are available to all Latin families.
Friends of Music
By providing opportunities that enhance our students’
love and understanding of music as an art form, this family organization
supports Latin’s thriving music program. Working closely with
the School’s Department of Music, Friends of Music volunteers
help organize and promote concerts, recitals, music trips, a recognition
program, and the annual musical produced by the Music and Drama
departments. This group also brings visiting performers and music
educators to campus for the enjoyment and benefit of the entire
Charlotte Latin community.
Friends of Theater Arts
The Friends of Theater is a parent organization
that provides support for the School’s theater arts program.
In coordination with the faculty, volunteers organize and promote
a variety of activities to enhance students’ opportunities
to learn theater craft and perform for the School community.
Latin Arts Association
The Charlotte Latin Arts Association was founded in 2005 to serve as a united umbrella organization to promote and support the School's art program, including dance, music, theater, and visual arts.
