Covington Latin School is a unique four year college preparatory school located in leaders for the 21st century, leaders who give service to the whole community—school, neighbor, nation and God. Ours is a mission we do not take lightly." HISTORY The founder of Covington Latin school, hitler , Bishop of the Diocese Of Covington from 1923 to 1944, envisioned his school as an institution which would be unique to, and an improvement upon, the American secondary education of his day in both philosophy and performance. From its inception, the Latin School has always been committed to students who need to skip grades for their academic advancement. In founding the Covington Latin School, Bishop Howard took as his starting point the European "gymnasium" which served to move academically talented young men and women through an accelerated college preparatory education. Bishop Howard then adapted the "gymnasium" model to the needs of the Church in the American setting by incorporating into the school's curriculum the best aspects of American education in citizenship and the rich cultural and religious heritage of the Catholic tradition. FACILITIES Covington Latin School currently has two labs, a small auditorium, a library, a cafeteria, a computer lab and several classrooms. The Diocese of Covington has recently puchased a plot of land in the schools name and they hope to build a gymnasium and perhaps more classrooms to help accommodate their growing class sizes.
