Why Baltimore Lab School?
Every Child Can Learn
Baltimore Lab School is imaginative, innovative, and extraordinarily successful when it comes to helping students manage their learning disabilities so that they can master challenging, college preparatory academics.
We recognize each student is a unique learner, and we are committed to adapting our instruction to meet every student’s needs. Using visual and performing arts as the gateway to academics, we are able to increase your child’s attention span, build organizational competency, enhance language and math skills, and – most important of all – bolster your child’s sense of self-confidence.
At Baltimore Lab School, we value the individual, and we are intent on helping individuals value themselves, as well.

Our Program
From first grade through high school, Baltimore Lab School provides a dynamic, stimulating environment that fuels the quest for knowledge. Our award-winning curriculum is multi-sensory, experiential, and challenging.
Students benefit from small classes and an exceptionally low teacher/student ratio. Individual attention, recognition, and positive reinforcement give young learners the support they need to succeed academically and socially.
Our Services
Every Baltimore Lab School student benefits from one-on-one evaluations that allow our team to customize academic strategies specifically targeted to his or her needs. In addition to clinical services that are integrated into every classroom, your child may require specific additional clinical services to further enhance academic success. In fact, the majority of our students do receive some level of additional clinical service support. Fees for these services are charged over and above our basic tuition.
