We believe New Orleans can be the first city in America where every child goes to a great school. We operate four public charter schools in New Orleans: Arthur Ashe Charter School, Samuel J Green Charter School, Langston Hughes Academy and Phillis Wheatley Community School. The mission of FirstLine Schools is to create and inspire great open admissions public schools in New Orleans. Our schools will prepare students for college, fulfilling careers, and a healthy life by nurturing students in mind, body, and spirit.
