Southern University Laboratory School sent 19 students ranging from grades 7th-11th to the 61st YMCA Youth & Government Conference held in Baton Rouge, LA. Organized by State Director Jeremy Miller and Isha Matta, the conference was December 1-3, 2022.
The Louisiana YMCA Youth Legislature conference is a three-day conference held each year that engages high school students from across the state at every level of state government. Students assume roles in all three branches of government as they debate issues of local and state importance. Through the conference, they gain first-hand knowledge of the democratic process and develop leadership and presiding skills. Youth Legislature is a student-led conference where State Board officials are elected by their peers to plan and preside over each conference.
Congratulations to Kalen Williams and Alaysia Raymond! Their bill on the modification of the, “Stand Your Ground,” law ranked high in Committee, passed the House of Representatives, then the Senate. On the last day of session, the presiding Governor vetoed the legislation.
The students displayed their writing, listening, oratorical, and debating skills throughout the conference. Job well done to all attendees.
For more information regarding SULS participation in the Youth & Government Conference please contact Herman R. Brister at (225) 771-3490 or hermanbrister@sulabschool.com

The SULS faculty and staff are excited and ready to embrace the opportunities that are in front of us. As we start the process of coming through the end of the pandemic, it is important to know that we have “work to do.” Learning remotely, starting school, stopping school, etc. paved the way for learning gaps to take place. As we start the 22-23SY we are implementing new strategies to start the learning recovery process. Please understand, LEAP 2025, ACT standards, and graduation requirements have not changed, and we must continue to prepare for the passing of the standardized assessments.

Summer Reading
We are excited to announce our 2022-2023 Summer Reading List for Pre-K through 12th grade. Summer reading is essential for students as it helps students maintain skills while school is out, and it also improves reading skills such as phonics, fluency, spelling, vocabulary,and comprehension. Research shows that children who participate in summer reading increase their motivation, confidence, and enjoyment. (Click Here for More information)

4-H Information
Southern University Youth Development Team has partnered with Southern University Laboratory School to start a 4-H Club; serving grades Pre-k through fifth grade. 4-H is America’s largest youth development organization—empowering nearly six million young people with the skills to lead for a lifetime. Based on the interest of your school we have developed some amazing opportunities to help develop their pathway in 4-H. The students will learn monthly from a broad menu of 4-H programs. There are hands-on, learn-by-doing, opportunities for everyone. Our program areas are stem, agriculture, healthy living, and civic engagement. Through hands-on learning, kids build not only confidence, creativity, and curiosity, but also life skills such as leadership and resiliency to help them thrive today and tomorrow. 4-H programs are available for kids and teens ages 8-18. 4-H Cloverbud programs are available for kids ages 5-7.
