General Information

The Latin Club is one of the most active and fun organizations at Riverbend High School. Membership is open to all RHS Latin students.

All the Latin Club is divided into three parts (with apologies to Julius Caesar): the Club proper, the National Latin Honor Society, and our competitive certamen teams.

The RHS Latin Club is affiliated with the National Junior Classical League and the Virginia Junior Classical League. The latest edition of the VJCL Forum is now available. Take a look! Morgan's in there!

The organization is governed by a functional and well-guarded constitution administered by the club's parliamentarian and president.

The motto of the RHS Latin Club is Fortuna Fortibus Favet = Fortune Favors the Brave. This motto was adopted in May 2011.

CONGRATULATIONS TO CODY LYON who has been appointed First Vice President of the Virginia Junior Classical League!
