Teachers of the Year from every school in Cobb and Marietta were
welcomed with thunderous applause and cheers from supporters at the
annual 'Give Our Schools A Hand' pep rally Oct. 26. Hundreds of
students, parents, business and community leaders and School District
officials packed the Roswell Street Baptist Church for the rally, which
is presented by the Cobb Chamber of Commerce. Each Teacher of the Year
was individually welcomed on stage and presented with a commemorative
plaque and gift bag. Chamber officials also held a prize drawing for the
honorees.
Talented student groups provided entertainment, including the Pope High
School jazz ensemble and The Company, a Broadway-style performance troup
from Pebblebrook High School's Center for Excellence in the Performing
Arts.
After the event, the teachers posed for photos with their students and
families, before making their way to the Cobb Galleria Centre for a
special luncheon in their honor.
