One Room School House
The One Room School House was the first charter school in the state of Florida to receive accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In their accreditation report, the SACS team wrote that One Room was a "unique and successful school meeting the needs of all students," with "a very dedicated and competent staff who put forth extra effort. "The school has an excellent facility that equates to their mission and goals," they continued, featuring a, "superbly equipped technology lab. Most importantly, the SACS team noted a, strong school, home and community relationship." This is no surprise to anyone who has watched the school emerge over the past decade. The One Room School House provides elementary and middle school education in a safe, family friendly environment where students are encouraged to achieve personal bests. Students are served according to their individual needs. Nothing is mass produced. Attention to detail is the hallmark of this fine school. Principal Sarah Sonberg, her staff, and the entire school family should be very proud. Families that are looking for a school in which their students can excel should investigate Gainesville's first and best charter school, The One Room School House.
