Wilson Felter

Wilson Felter is entering his 24th year in education, and 5th as the Middle School Director at Penn Charter, the importance of relationships has not changed since he began teaching at Capitol Hill Day School, in Washington DC, in August of 1994. Since then, he has worked in four schools including three Quaker schools: Sandy Spring in Olney MD, Greene Street in Philadelphia PA, and now Penn Charter. A driving force in his professional life is to bring Quaker education to as many young people as possible because he believes the world needs what our graduates can do. Most importantly, their students enter the world with a foundational understanding that every person carries with them an Inner Light or that which is good or divine in all of them. This is one reason why he volunteers his time as a Board Member on the Friends Council on Education and teaches a Quakerism course to our seventh graders at Penn Charter.
