What is a lab school?
Laboratory work is central to the Uni’s mission and aligned with the university’s commitment to research, innovation, and public service. Uni teachers explore educational practice through inquiry, experimentation, and innovation in their classroom and beyond. Uni teachers generate knowledge that improves student outcomes and advances secondary education beyond the school.
Academics
As a laboratory school, Uni high gives teachers the creative liberty and support they need to develop challenging and innovative curricula. Project-based and hands-on activities are paired with traditional lectures and testing to foster an environment of intellectual curiosity, creativity, and excellence.
In support of our mission, all academic courses at Uni are honors courses.
