Cobb School Alumni Association, uniting the past and present of Cobb School Montessori, where memories flourish and legacies begin.
Since 1974, Cobb School Montessori has been more than just a school; it’s been the stepping stone that prepared students for greater things. The sense of belonging, independence, and confidence that was instilled by the motto, ‘Believe, Guide, Step Aside, Let Fly’ is reflected in the accomplishments of our alumni.
In celebration of our 50th year and the many students who have walked our halls, we introduce the Cobb School Alumni Association. A group dedicated to connecting, supporting, and calling our Alumni home.
Dear Cobb Community,
We are writing on behalf of the Cobb School Alumni Association and we wanted to introduce ourselves. My name is Annabelle Jacobs and I graduated from the Cobb School in 2017. I then went on to attend Kingswood Oxford School and am currently a Freshman at The University of Virginia. Some of my favorite memories are performing in the Opera, my 6th-year class trip to Montreal, and art with Chris Lyles.
My name is Alex Kulicki and I graduated from the Cobb School in 2013. I am a recent graduate of the University of Chicago and now work as an Industry Analyst with the Center for Automotive Research. A few of my favorite memories include endless long-division problems, playing football during recess, and delving into D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths.
In the 50th year of the Cobb School, it is our hope that we can grow the Alumni Association to include more members and host regular events that everyone will enjoy. We want to connect the young alumni who are living all over the country and create a broad alumni network.
Sincerely,
Annabelle and Alex

6th Year Pizza Mentoring
Who better to offer advice on life after Cobb than alums who’ve been there? We’re looking for local alumni who attended a variety of schools in the area, from private to public, to answer questions and provide some guidance to our current 6th year class. If you’re interested in attending a Friday pizza lunch session, please contact marcie.braden@cobbschool.com.
