SCIENCE WET LABS

Give your high school student the hands-on laboratory experience that brings science to life!

Lab Rat Academy provides teacher-led science wet labs designed to fulfill the hands-on laboratory component of A-G approved high school science courses.

Students gain real experience with scientific equipment, experiments, observation, and analysis in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Earth Science — with both in-person and online options available.

CHOOSE YOUR LAB EXPERIENCE

Lab Rat Academy offers two ways for high school students to complete meaningful, teacher-led science labs.

IN-PERSON LABS

Join us for engaging, hands-on laboratory experiences throughout Northern and Central California. Students work directly with scientific equipment, specimens, experiments, and laboratory techniques under live teacher instruction.

WHAT YOUR LAB PROVIDES

Hands-on, teacher-led laboratory experiences that supplement your student's A-G high school science course. Labs do not replace the student's textbook, curriculum, or full science course.

HOW A-G CREDIT WORKS

Lab Rat Academy provides the hands-on laboratory component but does not award A-G course credit. Students complete their academic science course through their school, charter school, or other approved program.

WHAT STUDENTS DO

Students practice scientific inquiry, observation, data collection, analysis, and written investigation through meaningful, hands-on laboratory experiences.

Before You Register: Please confirm with your school or charter that these labs meet your student's course requirements. Lab materials vary by course; see the individual lab pages for specific requirements. For complete A-G information, consult the official UC A-G guidelines .
