Cobb County School District, Public school district in Georgia
Cobb County School District is a public school district based in Marietta, Georgia, covering most of Cobb County and offering education from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. Its administrative offices sit on Glover Street in Marietta, from where more than 110 schools across the county are coordinated.
The district grew steadily through the 20th century and earned accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. In later decades it faced public debates over curriculum choices and the state of some school buildings.
The district draws students from a wide range of backgrounds, and this mix is visible in the daily life of its schools. Many campuses host events and programs that reflect the communities they serve.
Schools are spread across Cobb County, so having a car is generally the easiest way to get around. Board meetings are open to the public and can also be followed online for those who prefer to attend remotely.
The district runs magnet programs in mathematics, science, and the arts that draw students from across the county, regardless of where they live. These programs work on an application basis, allowing students to attend a school outside their usual neighborhood zone.
