My kids have grown tremendously since they joined Lab in the middle school and lower school. Their academics have been rigorous and their teachers supportive. There are tons of sports and clubs to get involved in. The only thing that is disappointing is the child (or maybe parent?) imposed emphasis on getting perfect grades. I am hopeful that will change.

I have had an absolutely incredible experience at U of C Lab Schools. They are so welcoming and in credibly helpful to their students.

The classes are rigorous and prepare you well for college classes. The sports aren't the best but they are still fun to participate in and watch. The worst part of the school is that they offer almost no AP classes so credits can't be transferred over to college unless students take classes and a community college.

I am a student at the Lab School and I have been going there since the first year of preschool. I am going into eighth grade this year, and I am very excited! I went through a really tough time, and the only place that I felt welcomed was Lab School. Everyone at Lab helped me through it and didn't j...

Hello everyone! I was a student at lab from Kindergarten all of the way through the end of high school (class of '03). My brother and one of my cousins also went to Lab all around the same time. Lab, in my opinion, is one of the best schools in the city for academics because it teaches students how...
