Be sure to visit the "Our Memories" page at Pricelabhistory.org to share your memories of the lab school and pricelabhistory.org/reunions for updates on upcoming reunion plans, including new information for the class of '72.

Our featured memory today is this wonderfully written piece by Bob Brammer, Class of 1967. Price Lab School: Student Teachers Teaching Students  was submitted on June 13, 2013 and in it, Bob talks about wearing the "Lab Rat" label with pride, knowing that student teachers learning in our classrooms would go on to be wonderful teachers in their own classrooms, and all of it creating an atmosphere that made learning a fun and exciting experience.

Memories like Bob's are a crucial part of collecting and preserving the history of Price Laboratory School. Won't you please take a few moments to share your memories with us? (You can easily submit them through the website: Share Your Memories.)


We'd love to hear from you!

The "Our Memories" page at pricelabhistory.org is full of great stories from those that remember Malcolm Price Laboratory School and they are a vital part of our effort to gather and share the history of our school. 

We'd love to hear your memories!

Every recollection shared can help us with names, dates, events, and may help others recall their most memorable moments at PLS. Please consider writing up your memories and submitting them today.  (Click here for our easy to use submission page.)

For our Monday Featured Memory we're sharing this submission from Cathy Henry (Toohey.)

With a total of 6 children, the Henry family had at least one child attending the lab school for the 34 years between 1946 and 1980. With the changes in name over the years the Henry family had the somewhat unique situation of all attending the same school, yet graduating from 3 "different" high schools. (The oldest from TCHS, the next 2 from SCHS, and the remainder from NUHS.)

Then please consider submitting your memories of Price Lab through the "Our Memories" page. We need everyone's help to preserve our legacy and we'd love to hear from you! 

We have a new faculty profile to feature this week!

Eva May Luse dedicated her life to education, eventually leading both the Laboratory School and the Department of Teaching from 1919 until her retirement in 1940.

It's Memory Monday!

Our featured memory was submitted by Randy Fossum in April of 2014.

From the class of 1960, Randy entitled his recollections:

"The Little Cottage on the College Campus or Even the Kindergarten Teacher was a Ph.D." 

and shares his many fond remembrances of the lab school, the interaction between the school and those in the college, and the many influential faculty members that made the lab school what it was.


You can read Randy's memory here. 


We need your memories!

As we work to collect and curate the history of the lab school we need your help.
