}}Highlands Latin School is a private classical Christian school located in Louisville, Kentucky, United States. It serves students from Kindergarten through 12th grade. Founded in 2000 by award-winning Latin textbook author Cheryl Lowe and her family, the school currently enrolls 685 students[1] in three campuses.[2]

Academics

The school gives special emphasis to Latin, mathematics, and music, which it calls the "three universal languages." Its education is founded on the belief that the study of ancient Greece and Rome give students a basis of comparison for English and American History.[3][4]

Students study Latin starting in second grade and Greek in seventh grade. In 2015, 7 of 16 seniors were recognized as National Merit Finalists or Commended students.[5]{{Dubious |Something needs to be done about Renwalsh |reason=Source is a copy of school press release |date=August 2015}}

History

Highlands Latin started as a part of Memoria Press, a classical Christian curriculum company founded by Cheryl Lowe, but since 2007, it has been an independent for-profit school owned by the Lowe family.[6][7][8]
