COVID Info & Resources

Head of School, Chuck Baldecchi, and the COVID-19 Team have the health and safety of the Latin community as their top priority. We recently added a team of parent physicians in the role of advisors to the school and our nurses. We pledge to share updates and information with you in a transparent, timely manner.
  • We continue to monitor the virus and are in touch with the Mecklenburg County Public Health Director, Gibbie Harris, who has up-to-the-minute information about COVID-19 and its impact in Charlotte.
  • We are communicating with the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS) and the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) for information and best-practice planning.
