It was founded by Sally Liberman Smith, an American educator who taught at American University, where she directed the (Graduate Program in Learning Disabilities ) from 1976 to 2007.〔http://media.www.theeagleonline.com/media/storage/paper666/news/2007/12/06/News/Founder.Of.Lab.School.Dies.At.78-3135395.shtml?reffeature=htmlemailedition〕 Katherine Schantz — who has more than 30 years of experience in the field of Learning Disabilities and ADHD — has directed the school from 2009 to the present.〔http://www.labschool.org/Page/About/Welcome-to-Lab〕 Most of the graduate program's students receive their training at the Lab School and then move on to other schools around the nation. The Lab School of Washington is currently being renovated and has plans to establish a new high school building by the Fall of 2016, as well as an expanded Theater and Arts Wing and a renovated Middle School.〔http://www.transforminglab.org/#the-campaign〕 ==Founding== Although the school was not officially incorporated until 1982,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lab School of Washington )〕 Lab School of Washington cites its founding date as 1967,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mission & Fast Facts )〕 when Sally Liberman Smith, faced with her son Gary's learning difficulties in school, began home schooling Gary and eventually started teaching other children faced with similar learning difficulties. At the time, Gary was a first-grader at Beauvoir elementary school who could not read and who struggled with simple math. Beginning with Gary and three other students, and originally as an extension of the Kingsbury Diagnostic Center, a testing, education and remediation facility dealing with learning difficulties and related issues, Mrs. Smith started her own school to help children with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences. Borrowing ideas from the 19th century philosopher, psychologist, and education reformer John Dewey who championed progressive education, Ms. Smith also figured out through themed birthday parties that kids, even those like her son who had significant learning differences, could successfully learn through the arts. Originally located at the Kingsbury Center on Bancroft Place, the school later moved to a small annex of the center on Phelps Place, where, in 1973, Smith designed the curriculum for the Lab School of Kingsbury Center's Junior High Program, and the school relocated to the current campus on Reservoir Road. Incorporated as its own school in 1982, The Lab School of Washington is now an independent non-profit educational institution. its Board of Trustees headed by Ann Bradford Mathias.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lab School of Washington )〕
