Hi, I`m a kid here and I love this place! I`ve been here for 6 years and honestly, it`s amazing! There are fewer students so the teachers can pay more attention to kids separately, and it`s just great!

My daughter loves this school. She loves her teachers and the school staff. She is learning and growing in this school. I love the academic program taught at CAL. I will enroll my daughter in their sports program this summer.

I can't say enough good things about the first baptist school of laurel. My children, in 3rd and 5th grade, have received a quality education that is strongly based on solid biblical truths. They have learned foundational academics but have also built character and grown spiritually. My children's standardized test scores have been at or above age level. I am so happy that my children go to a school where prayer is not only allowed but strongly encouraged. I was hospitalized midway through the school year. This difficult experience was made bearable for my children through the love and support of the school. We have been truly blessed by our family's experience at FBSL.
