Boston Latin is closing on on 400 years old. 200 years is a long time, but its far from the oldest.

Oldest Public High School.

Latin is 7 to 12. Latin is the oldest school since it used to teach all grades.

That's … kind of a technicality.

that after nearly 200 years some of those alumni are dead.

/Although one of them is probably still teaching Latin at my old high school.
