Charlotte Latin Service Society Class of 2023 Inductees

The stated mission of Charlotte Latin School is to “encourage individual development and civility in our students by inspiring them to learn, by encouraging them to serve others, and by offering them many growth-promoting opportunities.” The Charlotte Latin Service Learning Program provides numerous opportunities to meet these objectives.

Participation in our service program allows students to develop an appreciation and understanding of service to others. Through exposure to and interaction with people with diverse backgrounds, abilities, and sociocultural traditions, students have first-hand opportunities to learn, to explore, and to find shared human concerns. These experiences help students discover abilities within themselves and others. The Service Learning Program provides opportunities for our students to develop leadership skills so that they can more effectively serve the community at large.

encourage students to participate in the Service Learning Program and to recognize those students who have made significant contributions to the area of community service. To be inducted into the Service Society, a four-year student must perform at least 150 hours of service. Students who transfer into our school will have their hour requirements prorated. Students may earn the necessary hours at any time in their Latin career, including summers, beginning with the summer before the Grade 9 year.

It is hoped that service to others will become part of a student’s lifestyle and that a significant number of hours will be earned during the school year through the school’s service program. It is also hoped that the service will, for the most part, be service to those truly in need. Service must be rendered to persons outside of the Upper School and must benefit people outside of the student’s peer group or people within non-school organizations of which the student is a member. The members of the Class of 2023 listed below have met the requirements for induction into the Service Society. This booklet has been created to recognize their achievement.
