Discovery Lab School

Posted October 4, 2009

Discovery Lab is awesome because of the wonderful group of caring adults and the community of students. My son has loved all of his teachers and most importantly he feels good about going to school everyday, even when he's struggling with reading or behavior. A truly caring, interested and driven community that fosters the talents and strengths of the students.

My daughter attended Discovery Lab for first and second grade. It is a small school and has a definite sense of community. The school does a lot to involve parents in on school activities. I was worried about her attending school with such older kids, but there hasn't been too many problems as there is only one classroom per grade, so easy to keep an eye on all kids. The first grade teacher is excellent, but the second grade teacher is young and lets the kids get out of control quite a bit. I'm hoping for better for third grade. It is definately preferable to a larger school like Roosevelt, for us.

We've been at Discovery Lab for seven years now, and it is a wonderful choice for us. We have a fabulous new principal (fall 2007) who has made a huge difference in terms of supporting our excellent teachers, providing a safe and welcoming environment for our kids, and who has successfully advocated for increased resources. This year we are experimenting with more electives for the 6-8th years: we have Sign Language, Spanish, Home Ec, Bridge Building, Art, PE, Band, Orchestra, Technology.This year Dsicovery received a School of Distinction Award (one of 83 schools in the state) for consistent improvements in assessments over the past five years; we reached this distinction as both an elementary and as a middle school; which apparently is very unusual. Always a work in progress, Discovery Lab has much to offer!
