Overview
Technology lives at The Lab School! Students get excited about our computer science program, featuring three computer labs, SMART Boards in all classrooms, trips to Google and New York's Silicon Alley, and a MOUSE Squad. All of our middle school students learn coding, robotics, web design, cybersecurity and many other programs. We also offer finance programs where students are immersed in a schoolwide economy with School Bucks, financial courses, school jobs, a school bank, and a school store. The school has been featured in The New York Times, PBS, New York Daily News, Wall Street Journal, NY1 News, and the NY Post for its innovative programs. M.S. 223 is featured in Clara Hemphill's book New York City's Best Public Middle Schools: A Parents' Guide. All middle school students receive expanded day programming including academic support, arts, and athletics. We have a model Spanish dual language program and most students select our high school program. Middle school students engage in educational trips and overnight college visits in NYC and beyond including Philadelphia, Boston, and Washington, DC. Finally, we have an amazing sports program including Basketball, Baseball, Soccer, and Lacrosse. We have something exciting for all!
