Meet Distinguished Fellow, Carlos Gonzalez, Director of Schools at Hive Prep.
Carlos was welcomed into the FCI Distinguished Fellows program for his track record of excellence and his future-forward outlook on school operations and best practices. Throughout the program, Carlos demonstrated his ability to connect, serve, and lead. Carlos is not only a leader, but an invaluable team player who brought a calm resolve to every challenge his group discussed. He leaned into the program materials and developed his professional network with a focus on self-improvement for the benefit of his students.
Carlos shared his thoughts about the Distinguished Fellows program in the 2024-25 academic year, stating:
“The Florida Charter Institute’s Founding Fellows program gave me, unlike any other program I’ve attended in over 15 years as a school leader, job-specific, practical knowledge and meaningful connections with experienced peers that I continue to rely on. The program leaders are incredibly talented and knowledgeable—they not only guide with expertise but truly listen, learn, and grow alongside the Fellows.”
FCI’s Distinguished Fellows program aims to build a community of exceptional leaders across Florida who, via clinically proven, research-backed development, continue to elevate the bar for instructional leadership in the state and nationally. The Distinguished Fellows program is part of FCI’s EDUCATE division, dedicated to enhancing educational practices within charter schools.
