FSUSD board president describes Carter as a "change agent" and laments loss of Carter to CUSD
Gary Falati
Gary Falati, TheReporter.com "It's definitely our loss. He [Carter] was hired as a change agent, and he made major changes in our district... He's done a great job for our district, and I'm saddened by his leaving us."

Carter started out as a superintendent for Bourbon County Schools and served as interim superintendent and state administrator for Floyd County Schools, both in Kentucky, before being hired as a deputy superintendent for the Oakland Unified School District in 2003, which at the time was facing a multi-million dollar deficit. The Fairfield-Suisun trustees voted to hire Carter in March of 2005. Falati said that the changes were necessitated by thousands of students that had fallen behind in math, English, or science. Falati is the Governing Board President of Fairfield-Suisun USD.
