NEC ME MEA FALLIT IMAGO

5/1/2018

Salvete Omnes!
The staff of the MMXVIII Governor's Latin Academy met over the weekend and we are so excited about the classes, films, speakers, field trips, workshops, immersion activities, and even some new surprises that are in store for this session of GLA. There is a great deal of paperwork in your immediate future, but please be as thoughtful as you can when filling out the participant survey. It helps us when planning everything from groupings to projects. Also, please adhere to the deadline of May 20 and let me know if you have any questions or will be late. We have a saying at the Latin Academy, "Early is on time, on time is late, and late is unacceptable." This applies to paperwork. :)
Please use this website as a resource for how to prepare for academy. The side tab of this blog has a lot of links to help you make your packing lists and to construct your Roman garb. Also, the rest of the staff will be posting prior to academy. We hope this allows you to begin to get to know us even before you arrive.
