FirstLine Leaders create their own Charters!

Two FirstLine employees have recently learned that applications they made for their own charter schools have been approved.  Elizabeth Ostberg, Director of Talent Development, will be leaving FirstLine next year to open an alternative school here in New Orleans.  Natasha Baker, Chief Academic Officer, is starting her own charter school in Detroit and will be moving there at the New Year, staying on at FirstLine as a consultant.  We wish them success as they continue the challenging work of closing the achievement gap here and around the country!
