and employees May 1 at its annual retirement luncheon. Held at
the Marietta Conference Center and Resort, retirees were
toasted by members of the Board of Education, Superintendent
Fred Sanderson and other District officials.
ABOVE: Superintendent Fred Sanderson poses
with the three principals who are retiring this year from
Cobb. From left, Judy Lindsay (Addison Elementary, 30
years), Sanderson, Dr. Diane Ray (Cooper Middle,
retired summer 2005, 31 years), and Terry Stechmiller
(East Cobb Middle, 40 years).
 |
LEFT:
Marilyn Brooks, retiring from her role as Instructional
Lead Teacher at Sope Creek Elementary, is congratulated by
