Partners in Education
The Cobb Chamber of Commerce's Partners in Education program matches businesses and organizations with schools to provide volunteer support, extra funding or unique services matched to the school's needs.

Partners in Education’s vision is to enrich the learning experience for Cobb’s children so that all learners will engage in life-long learning that will develop both a strong academic foundation and skills and values to successfully engage in community life and a career. If you are interested in becoming a Partner in Education with Wheeler High School, please contact Mildred.Threeton@cobbk12.org
