What is a Lab School?

A Laboratory School, or lab school, is an educational institution affiliated with a college or university that serves as a site for teacher training and educational research. Lab Schools have a dual mission: to provide high-quality education to students while acting as a living laboratory for developing and testing innovative teaching methods.

Lab Schools often feature smaller class sizes, diverse curricula, and a focus on hands-on learning. They bridge educational theory and practice, enabling collaboration among educators, researchers, and students in real-world settings. Historically, they have led educational innovation and contributed to advancements in pedagogy and teacher preparation.
