I am a parent and I think that Felton Laboratory School is an excellent School, and will surely move to a great take off for the school year 2011-2012. This public school is situated on the University Campus, where students will have the opportunity to experience College experience with Science Labs, Language Arts Labs, Reading Labs,and many others.Please send your children to Felton, so that they can have a different experience.
