From Panama to the Bronx: Yeime Valle on Leading with Clarity, Character, and Community
<p>In this special summer 2026 episode of Leader to Leader, Darryl Cobb, President of the Charter School Growth Fund, sits down with Yeime Valle, CEO and Executive Director of Brilla Public Charter Schools, a network of eight schools serving approximately 2,500 students across the Bronx.</p><p>Yeime reflects on immigrating from Panama, growing up without her mother and father present, and how her own experiences as a student shaped her belief that educators must understand the whole child, not only the behavior they see in the classroom. She shares her unconventional path from business and school operations to becoming Brilla’s first Black woman CEO, and why her journey helps students and families see what may also be possible for them.</p><p>From home visits and family partnerships to Brilla’s unapologetic focus on literacy and character formation, Yeime explains how clarity helped the network increase the percentage of students reading at grade level.

Big People and Little People: Tori Jackson Hines on Building a Culture of Excellence and Motherhood
<p>Join Darryl Cobb, President of the Charter School Growth Fund, for the final episode of Leader to Leader Season 2, as he sits down with Tori Jackson Hines, the founder of Atlanta’s Resurgence Hall. They explore how a school that consistently ranks in the top 2% of all Georgia schools, even outperforming the state's most affluent communities, is actually a "human development organization" at its core. During their conversation, Hines reveals the personal mission behind her "unapologetic" focus on literacy and her rejection of the "talent desert" myth by hiring for heart over technical mastery. She also shares the remarkable story of how she championed a culture where women can thrive as both elite leaders and mothers. Hines leaves listeners with a powerful look at what happens when an organization is built on the belief that there is no more important work than developing both "big people and little people,” prioritizing both the students and the adults in the building.</p><p><br></p>

Win the Minutes: How Carlos Gonzalez Built a Title I School in Miami That Beats the Odds
<p>Join Darryl Cobb, President of the Charter School Growth Fund, as he sits down with Carlos Gonzalez, former Director of Schools at HIVE Preparatory, to explore how a “win every minute” mindset helped turn a bold vision into sustained results for students. From growing up in Little Havana to stepping into education after a career detour, and then launching a charter school with just days to spare during the recession – Carlos shares the founding story behind HIVE Preparatory and the leadership lessons that shaped its culture during his tenure. He breaks down what it looked like to protect teachers, build a school where adults and students showed up with purpose, and create an environment where rigorous instruction and strong relationships reinforced each other. Carlos also reflects on spreading the HIVE approach beyond one campus, partnering with Beacon College Prep and helping accelerate outcomes, while keeping the focus on what mattered most: great teaching, every day, in every classroom.</p>
