The University of Memphis is home to University Schools, a compendium of laboratory schools, including the Barbara K. Lipman Early Learning & Research Center, Campus Elementary School, University Middle and University High School, as well as our partner programs with Porter-Leath and the Harwood Center.

The mission of University Schools is to provide the children of our community with educational experiences that enhance their development from birth to graduation and promote dynamic research, collaborative partnerships and innovative practices. 

Visit the University Schools website to learn more about each school and program. Information on how to apply and enroll at a University School or partner program can be found on the University Schools Enrollment page and enrollment inquires can be directed to the Admissions and Enrollment team at enrollus@memphis.edu
