GREATNESS, NOT JUST GRADUATION.
The desire to create a great future for our scholars drives our passion.
LAB teachers and staff actively build a supportive culture to empower scholars, encourage their independence, and teach them about themselves as learners. LAB High School cultivates scholars’ agency in two ways: through deep learning in the content areas, and through a school culture that reflects a commitment to youth development principles. Scholars experience an Advanced Placement curriculum beginning in 9th grade and have a variety of opportunities to apply their learning to real-world contexts throughout high school. Historically, 93% of our high school scholars have earned their diploma in four years.
