About School Project Lab

School Project Lab started with a simple idea: school projects shouldn't mean a stressed-out family and a 10 p.m. run to the store. We publish free, practical guides, kid-friendly checklists, planners and supply lists for projects from kindergarten through senior year — in English and Spanish, so every family can follow along.

What we believe

• The student does the work. Parents guide, plan and supervise safety. Kids think, build, write and present.
• Clear beats fancy. A neat, honest project that answers the assignment wins over an expensive one.
• Every family belongs. Our guides work for single-parent homes, blended and foster families, bilingual households and tight budgets.

Who writes our guides

Our guides are written and reviewed by the School Project Lab editorial team using teacher-style rubrics and common classroom expectations. Every school is different, so we always encourage you to check your teacher's instructions and official contest rulebooks first.
