Testimonials

“As a parent, finding the right environment for your child when you can’t be with her or him, is an important and stressful job. The moment my husband and I walked on campus, we knew. From the classrooms to the teachers, everything felt like a hug. Cobb was not the first school we experienced. But, after experiencing the Young Children’s Community [Toddler Program] at Cobb, we could not imagine being anywhere else. We saw, and continue to see, tremendous growth in our daughters both as students and, more importantly, individuals.”

Before 2020, we never imagined raising our children during a global pandemic. The health, safety, and education of our children have always been our priorities, but those words became threatened, and our lives forever changed with the emergence of COVID-19. We experienced an unplanned, extended school shutdown, virtual Montessori education, losing multiple family members to the virus, and no cure as we approached the 2020-2021 school year. We faced a challenging decision: send our children back into the classroom for the new school year or keep them home.

Through the entire experience, every single administrator, educator, and staff member demonstrated top-notch, unmatched professionalism, dedication, grace, kindness, and genuine love. There were detailed emails that kept us informed of the ever-changing situation regarding guidelines for school opening. Zoom meetings were held detailing plans for the new school year, including the many ways Cobb School went above and beyond meeting requirements to keep our children healthy and safe in the building. We were blown away by the diligent, detailed, and extensive preparation demonstrated by the extraordinary Ms. Sue and the entire Cobb School staff. Without hesitation on our part, our children returned to the classroom as soon as the physical doors reopened. The Cobb School Montessori is our children’s home away from home, the community, truly part of their extended family. We are incredibly grateful for our family’s experience and eagerly look forward to many more years at Cobb!

It is a privilege to be a part of the magical Cobb community. We see each day how our support of the school shapes our son’s experience, whether he is enjoying the beautiful campus, practicing with the best learning materials, or, most importantly, learning from expert Montessori educators. We delight in helping the school continue to grow and thrive for all students.

As a family we have chosen to prioritize supporting Cobb financially so that the school can quite simply continue to be a force for good in the world.  We wish to do our part to help ensure that the resources necessary to support children academically, socially, and physically are there so the amazing teachers and staff at Cobb can continue to guide students to become good global citizens. The Cobb School truly sets the standard for educating the whole young child and we feel very lucky to be able to have our children growing and learning here and will continue to support Cobb financially.

The responsible, caring, and giving community at Cobb has ensured that my children are safe to develop into their most authentic selves while caring deeply about the world around them.

Our two daughters are flourishing at Cobb because the caring teachers have connected with both girls. In these unique times, those connections are even more important than ever before. We thank Cobb for their efforts to know and care for our children in order to be happy as they enjoy the challenges of learning, even at the youngest age!
