About Latin League
The Latin League is a year-long competition created this past summer for Middle and Upper School students. It challenges teams to demonstrate their knowledge of the ancient Mediterranean world, covering topics such as Latin grammar, reading comprehension, derivatives, classical art, mythology, and more.

There are five rounds of competition against schools in each region. Each round consists of 100 multiple-choice questions (50 involve Latin language skills and 50 involve ancient cultures) and teams have 45 minutes to complete. Teams qualify for Super-Regionals in March, based on their regional performance. Nationals take place in April.
