The philanthropic arm of the Cobb County School District awarded their 2019 Teacher Impact Grants earlier this year. Though a bit late, MIC wants to recognize the teachers in Mableton area schools who competed for and won these grants for their students. They were selected from a pool of 118 schools in Cobb County. The Cobb Schools Foundation provides funds that support teacher requests that focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) as well as student development in the areas of character, leadership, world languages, performing arts and more.
