Tarlac State University - Laboratory High School (Lab School or TSU-LS) is a secondary school in Tarlac City, Philippines. It was established in 1985 under the College of Education of Tarlac State University, aiming to help undergraduate students of the college in their practice teaching. [2]

The school was located at Lucinda Campus, a 10-hectare property of the University in Binauganan, Tarlac City, along with the College of Education and College of Science.

History

In 2005, a proposition suggesting to stop its operation was presented due to the inability of the provincial government to support the school. This order was not implemented and it continued to operate. However, after over 10 years, the decision to stop the school's operation was finalized. On April 1, 2016, the last commencement ceremony was conducted for its last batch of students.

On September 1, 2021, the board of directors of TSU had announced that the Laboratory School will be reinstituted along with offering the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) strand in Senior High School, on the later accepting Junior High School students in the School Year 2022-2023 in July 9, 2022.

Achievements

Laboratory School had received numerous awards in both academic and athletic competitions in citywide and national level. One of the school's profound achievements is its Hall of Fame award in 2007 for being the first school to win grand champion in five-consecutive years in Malatarlak Festival Street Dancing Competition. [4] Lately, Laboratory School has been participating in the National Cheerleading Championship.

The last director of TSU-LS was Prof. Norbina Genever M. Castro, [5] who presided over Prof. Ma. Shinette P. Morales (Chairman, Academic Department), Prof. Mellany G. Masangkay (Chairman, Makabayan Department), Engr. Estrella B. Pagco (Research Chairman), Dr. Cynthia G.

Alagano (Coordinator for Gender and Development, College Statistician and CSC Financial Adviser), Mr. Douglas C.

As a part of the university, the school became a training ground for the Education students where they taught high school students as substitute of the faculty members.

Agliam, Alvin Tan, Ramachandra Torres, and Mark Liherson Mateo (Clerk).
