School Notes Overview: |
Founded in 1645, in the reign of King Charles the First, Roxbury Latin is the oldest school in continuous existence in North America. The School’s goal today is to offer young men the finest secondary education available. We seek to fit students for public service both in church and commonwealth and we dare to strive to earn-in our time-the honor bestowed upon the School in an earlier age: the title Schola Illustris. For younger boys, Roxbury Latin emphasizes the basic skills in the major disciplines: the arts, English, history, classical and modern language, computer science, mathematics, and science.
