The University of Chicago Laboratory Schools provides one of the world’s most outstanding pre-collegiate educational experiences. Because Lab is part of the University of Chicago, the importance of intellectual life—of thought and exploration—infuses all aspects of the curriculum and students in every grade benefit from outstanding UChicago academicians and access to unmatched resources.
