Charter Support Unit

The merger of the Charter Support Unit (CSU) into the Florida Charter Institute (FCI) represents a significant step in our commitment to supporting charter schools across Florida. FCI’s team of experts is now better positioned to drive both academic and operational excellence, ensuring schools have the resources they need to achieve success. By bringing CSU’s expertise under the FCI umbrella, we’re strengthening our ability to empower charter schools with the tools and guidance necessary to excel. Together, we’re elevating educational standards and fostering student achievement across the state. #FCI #CharterSchools #EducationExcellence #FloridaCharters #SchoolSupport #AcademicSuccess #OperationalExcellence #StudentAchievement #EducationalStandards #FCI #CSUMerger #EducationInnovation #EmpoweringSchools

"Memory is the residue of thought", Dr. Daniel Willingham The members of the FCI (Florida Charter Institute) Distinguished Fellows had the opportunity to spend time with University of Virginia Professor, Author and Scientist, Daniel Willingham.
