About the Author

Dr. John von Rohr has sixteen years of highly successful experience operating charter schools that have won recognition at both national and state levels. A twenty-one year veteran of the U.S. Army, to include serving on the staff and faculty at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, he is very knowledgeable about all aspects of charter school operation, to include the start-up phase. Starting out with his first charter school leadership position in 1999, charter schools under his leadership have consistently excelled, to include his current school, Spartanburg Prep, located in downtown Spartanburg, SC, which has earned the grade of “A” on three consecutive State Report Cards, to include a 98.3% composite score for the 2013-2014 school year. In 2013, his charter school received recognition as a “Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School.” He recently became a member of the Blue Ribbon Schools assessment team for charter schools.
