School Overview
The address **3700 Ross Avenue, Dallas, TX 75204** corresponds to the site of **CityLab High School**, a Dallas Independent School District (DISD) choice school.

Because it is situated in the heart of downtown Dallas, the school leverages the city itself as a "living laboratory."

The curriculum is project-based and emphasizes critical thinking, civic engagement, and design-thinking skills. By integrating traditional academic requirements with hands-on experience in urban studies, the school aims to prepare students for higher education in fields such as engineering, public policy, and architecture, while fostering a deep understanding of how to build and improve the cities of the future.
