Laurel was a great school and I learned a lot. Sure you had your clicks, your bullies, but the friends I made and the times I had were priceless. A lot of awesome teachers and faulty. Some are not here anymore but they are missed. I graduated in 1987. Things were a lot simpler then compared to today. Spartan pride always!
