The FCSA School Leaders Fellowship trains future charter school administrators. Funded by a grant from the Florida Department of Education, the Fellowship prepares participants to successfully take the reigns of a charter school and connects them with veteran and novice principals to create a network of experts and colleagues they can rely on. On this episode you'll meet Elwood R. Thompson, graduate of the School Leaders Fellowship. The voice of the charter school movement, the Florida Charter School Alliance (FCSA) is non-profit, member-driven organization. Our mission is to improve student achievement, teacher quality, and promote parental choice by advocating for, supporting, defending, and collaborating with public charter schools.
Our member schools serve approximately 58% of the charter school student population in Florida and run the gamut of choice educational programs – ranging from urban to rural campuses, from programs specializing in exceptional students or drop-off prevention to unique classical curriculum, and college-prep programs in high-need areas. Yet all our member schools have a common thread – a steadfast commitment to raising the bar on public education and providing a quality education option to the children and communities they serve.
There are more than 341,900 public charter school students in Florida. If Florida charter schools were a district, it would be the 2nd largest school district in the state. #FloridaCharterSchoolAlliance
