GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

University Laboratory School has been a good school from the start. The education is good, and the teachers and students are nice. I'm glad to be able to come to this school because it has opened up new things in my life. It is required to take art and a music class. I'm glad to take those classes because they showed me more about myself and how I like sculpting and singing with my classmates. Even though it is a small school, it is still a great one because everyone is close and there are never problems like fights.

ULS has an outstanding academic curriculum and great learning environment. It has a great music programs and has small size student to teacher ratio. The school has a lot of student lead activities and student lead clubs.

We have caring staff and teachers who value our education. Administration is biased and discipline is based on favoritism.

Over the years I have come to realize how fortunate I was to have been accepted. It was a full, well-rounded and thorough curriculum which opened the door to many opportunities. Th...

My Daughter is currently going to University Lab School and is far ahead of her many friends that are going to other schools in her same grade. The classes are very hands on and really help to develop and nurture the children learning process.
