This week, the Lab School received notice from LSU Parking that there is a parking problem on the auditorium side of the school. Some parents and students are using the Law School parking lot and preventing the Law School students from entering and parking in their designated area.
Parents dropping off and picking up students should go through the carpool line on East Campus Drive. Carpoolers should not be parking in the Law School lot, parking in the Law School entrance way, or cutting through the parking lot.
As a matter of safety, pick up and drop off should be done from the school side of the street. Please do not block the street and ask your child to cross into traffic fordrop-off or pickup.
We thank you in advance for your cooperation in making sure that all students are safely dropped off and picked up from school and thank you for helping the Lab School community in our efforts to be good neighbors to the Law School and following LSU Parking policies.

Cub Campus Beautification Day |
K-12 Volunteer Sign-Up: Cub Campus Beautification Day!
Join us on Sunday, March 23rd, between 2:00 PM and 6:00 PM for a rewarding service opportunity to help beautify our school campus!
We welcome families, students, and community members to pitch in—there’s something for everyone! Sign up for a 2-hour shift, but if you can only stay for part of a shift or would like to help for longer, that’s great, too!
Help with tasks like power washing, painting, and flower bed maintenance to keep our campus looking its best. Families can sign up together (e.g., “Anderson Family”) instead of individually.
School clubs, teams, and organizations are encouraged to sign up as a group!
Need service hours? Mrs. Bevill can provide documentation for your time.
In addition to volunteers, we also need equipment and materials to make the day a success! If you can, please lend items such as:
Paint brushes, paint rollers, paint scrapers
Painter’s tape, drop cloths
Ladders, power washers
Every contribution helps!
👉 Sign up to volunteer or lend materials today to support our school community!
Contact jbevill@lsu.edu with questions.
