A.E. Phillips Laboratory School

Situated on Hergot Street within the Louisiana Tech University campus in Ruston, Louisiana, the A.E. Phillips Laboratory School represents a unique public educational setting in the northern region of the state. Functioning as a specialized local education agency rather than a traditional charter district, its university-affiliated setting historically positioned it as a distinctive laboratory learning environment designed to blend public schooling with higher education resources.

According to national reporting for the 2024–2025 academic year, the district's operating status is formally classified as closed, with zero operational schools currently under its purview. As a result of this inactive status, there are no active grade ranges or staffing personnel reported for the current term. For parents, students, and educational researchers tracking public school administration, this context reflects an institutional transition where active public instruction is no longer conducted under this specific agency entity, though its historical footprint remains a notable aspect of Louisiana's educational landscape.
