FCSA Membership information
The Florida Charter School Alliance is the leading non-profit organization that’s 100% committed to supporting and advocating for the charter school movement in the Sunshine State. Our team works closely with school leaders, governing board members, teachers, and parents to promote charter school growth and success, and help our member schools resolve critical issues.
What we do for member schools:
✔ASSIST
Our team is the one schools call when they are dealing with a media crisis. We also help implement successful student recruitment campaigns, craft turn-around plans for struggling schools, offer a comprehensive teacher/principal evaluation tool, provide teacher recruitment assistance, and offer you cost-savings on quality resources and products through our Marketplace partnerships.
✔ADVOCATE
We lead advocacy efforts in Tallahassee and Washington, D.C. – educating lawmakers about charter school successes and parental choice, and securing support for the movement. We lead districts/charter school mediation efforts, and assist with contract renewals and the application process. Through workshops, we help train parents to be vocal advocates for their school and the charter school movement.
✔EDUCATE
Our outreach to media and key decision makers promotes charter school and highlights the vital role charter schools play in Florida’s system of public education.
