(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - FBSL is a wonderful school to consider! My children have been there since my son was in Prek and he is now in second grade. The teachers there are great! Their building is brand new as of last year and they are moving forward in positive directions. I would never think of moving my children anywhere else. Even their rates are very reasonable compared to others in the Laurel/Savage/Odenton area and I have 2 children and 1 more getting ready to enter school so that is also important to me. My children's testing scores are way above average, locally and nationally and I believe that is the result of FBSL's teaching methods as well. I love that so many parents are involved with the school.

- FBSL is a great school. The curriculum is challenging; the teachers are committed; the kids and the parents are great. I'm excited that the school is continuing to grow in many positive directions.
