Wow! Thank you June for adding even more interest to a great story. Those kids are fortunate to have you visit! Our son, Lucas, was/is a Latin scholar so we’ve enjoyed many discussions about Homer. I’ll share this with him!

How wonderful! And what an interesting school. I studied Latin in high school but went to a Roman Catholic girls’ school. Latin was still relevant in church. It’s both wonderful & amazing it’s taught anywhere today.

My daughter teaches at the sister campus in Mesquite, she took the job because she would be teaching Homer as well as Chaucer. Studies show that kids who study Latin do better on the SAT. Maybe because it requires so much critical thinking?
