UCLA Lab School
The UCLA Lab School, a quasi-private, quasi-public-school, has been on the UCLA campus since 1947 and currently serves 450 students ranging in ages 4–12 and their families. Today, GSEIS's Department of Education is the only such department in the United States that enjoys direct access to an on-campus elementary school. The Lab School classrooms provide an experiential education by serving as laboratories for exploring ideas about teaching, learning, and child development. The school is located on the northern part of the UCLA campus, directly north of the UCLA Anderson School of Management, off Sunset Boulevard. The school has also opened satellite campuses in South Los Angeles, where educators can directly attack the educational challenges posed by poverty, lack of English fluency and achievement gaps on the part of racial and ethnic minorities.

The lack of liberty, the squeeze of the law
And discipline should be in school and state....”
