加勒逼

Every year on the Friday before Mardi Gras, 加勒逼 celebrates a new cohort of Big Chief honorees. Created in 2015, the Big Chief Awards are named after former FirstLine leaders who embodied the values of Service, Learning, Results, Collaboration, Fun, and Safekeeping.

Big Chiefs reflect those who exemplify FirstLine鈥檚 most sacred values and inspire us to exhibit courage as we work toward educational equity for all children in New Orleans.

Big Chief nominations are reviewed by Big Chiefs from the previous year. Factors taken into account in judging are the number of years the nominee has been employed at FirstLine, the number of nominations the employee received this year and in previous years, and nominations that give specific, concrete examples of how the employee embodies the FirstLine commitment. We are so excited to celebrate this year鈥檚 Big Chief winners! You can click on their names below to see why they were selected. You can click on each winner’s name below to see their Big Chief video.听
