2022 Big Chief Award Winners Named
On Friday, February 25th FirstLine Schools presented our annual Big Chief Awards. Since 2015 we have celebrated staff members who live out the FirstLine commitments and best reflect them in their daily service to their school communities. Each year we open nominations to our staff and this year we had over 100 nominations. The prior year’s Big Chief winners gather at a dinner to select the next group of Big Chiefs.
This year we honored seven of our staff members who live the FirstLine commitments. We also take the time to celebrate our Network and School Partners who are recognized for their outstanding service to our students, staff, and families.
During the awards ceremony, Big Chief winners are celebrated through videos featuring their peers who nominated them for the award. You can click on the name of each Big Chief award winner to view their special video.
