School One is a hidden gem in Providence. The staff is creative, respectful, and kind. The students accept each other for who they are. As soon as I arrived at School One I was welcomed and inspired to learn and lead. It will always be my home...current students and other alumni always feel like family to me.

Academic programs are challenging - emphasis on writing. Teachers are readily available for additional help. Great fit for any student who learns "outside of the box" as students are graded based on thier own performance v. ability. Very nurtuting yet challenging environment
