“We’re not selling products, we’re selling an experience,” Buckhead Butcher Shop executive chef Leonard Lewis said. ECN photos
As he considered expanding from his original store in Atlanta, Buckhead Butcher Shop owner Connor Boney said coming to East Cobb was high on his list.
He also was looking at another possibility in the Alpharetta-Johns Creek area, but decided on the former Cleaver and Cork space at the Shops of Woodlawn on Johnson Ferry Road (next to Big Peach Running Co.)
“It’s a great location and fits our clientele,” Boney said, citing a wealth of other local businesses and opportunities to get involved in community activities.
The Buckhead Butcher Shop opened on May 1, and like its older counterpart sells premium beef and meats and select seafood products, along with charcuterie items, side dishes, spices, eggs, prepared pasta meals, condiments and more.
Boney and his wife Katie (the company’s chief financial officer) started the Buckhead Butcher Shop in 2020, not long after the start of COVID-19.
He was a co-owner of Revere Meat Co. in Forest Park, which specialized in locally sourced meat processing and distribution. One of his employees there, Sam Fender, came over to help open the Buckhead Butcher Shop, as pandemic closures continued.
Buckhead Butcher Shop started as box-truck operation, selling meats to largely home-bound customers as restaurants remained closed, then took up temporary store space in Peachtree Heights.
The Buckhead store has moved to a location off West Paces Ferry Road, and includes space for cooking classes and private events.
“This how we started,” Fender said, looking around the black-clad walls and decor at the East Cobb store. “This is similar to the first store, with the same aesthetic.”
For now, Fender and executive chef Leonard Lewis—who served in a similar capacity at Bones, an iconic Atlanta steakhouse—are handling the operations in East Cobb, which is open for retail sales from daily.
The beef comes primarily from Creekstone Farms of Oklahoma, which specializes in black Angus. Seafood is sourced from around the world, with salmon from Norway, tuna from Costa Rica, to name two examples.
The objective, Lewis said, is to help home cooks.
“We’re not selling products, we’re selling an experience,” he said. “We want to make everything connect with you.”
Fender noted the competition in the area: the New York Butcher Shoppe, and long-standing businesses such as the Cajun Meat Co.
He said he not only welcomes the competition—”it keeps your standards high”—but says their presence reflects a strong opportunity in this market.
“We’re trying to get people back to the dinner table,” Fender said, “and enjoying meals and one another.”

After more than 500 Cobb County School District teachers enrolled in an all-expenses-paid online graduate degree program last year, the district announced Friday it is expanding that offer.
The district said in a release Friday afternoon that Georgia’s BEST (Building Educator Success Together) will add 200 more enrollment slots for classes that begin in August.
Teachers get their degrees from the University of West Georgia. When Georgia’s BEST was unveiled last year, the district approved spending $500,000 for a proof of concept proposal that also included certificate programs.
The district release Friday didn’t indicate if any additional funding would be required for the expansion.
Cobb schools superintendent Chris Ragsdale said Georgia’s BEST is designed not only to improve teacher retention, but to broaden professional development in the classroom.
Certified staff and paraprofessionals have until May 10 to file an application of interest form, including those who applied last year but were not enrolled.
Nearly 500 slots will be filled for the upcoming academic year. The August cohort degree programs include education specialist, a master’s in special education, an MAT in special education and an educational doctorate in school improvement.
The January cohort programs include education specialist and master’s of education in instructional technology.

At April’s Rally on the Runway fundraiser at the Georgia Aquarium, 10-year-old Nick from Roswell/East Cobb and Rally Kids from throughout Georgia who are fighting or surviving cancer, each took 47 steps down the runway as a reminder that everyday 47 children are diagnosed with cancer.
The evening’s host was longtime Rally supporter and Atlanta Falcons Defensive Tackle Grady Jarrett. Jarrett along with other NFL players walked with each model down the runway. Nick was joined on the runway by Atlanta Falcons Linebacker Donavan Mutin, where the two struck a pose to excited cheers from the crowd. That evening more than $780,000 was raised for pediatric cancer research. Joined by NFL players, the kids also got a chance to have a behind the scenes tour of the aquarium prior to the event. You can see Nick modeling at about the one-minute mark here.
Last summer, he was having fun when he suddenly became fatigued and tired all the time. His parents knew something was wrong and after a few hours at the hospital, it was confirmed that Nick had acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Nick immediately started treatment and has been fighting cancer ever since. Nick loves sports especially baseball. Within the first six months of his diagnosis, he and his family decided to raise money to help fight childhood cancer. Nick and his family have raised $50,000 and are going to be able to name a research grant in his honor.

Submitted information and photo:
Omer Mustafa Inan, a senior at George Walton Comprehensive High School in Marietta, Ga., is the 2024 State PAGE (Professional Association of Georgia Educators) STAR (Student Teacher Achievement Recognition) Student. He named Walton’s Tamara Hollingsworth, an English teacher, as his STAR Teacher. As this year’s State PAGE STAR Student, Inan won a $7,500 scholarship from PAGE, and as State PAGE STAR Teacher, Hollingsworth received a $7,500 cash award from the Frances Wood Wilson Foundation.
Parv Mahajan, a senior at Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology in Lawrenceville, Ga., is the State Runner-up PAGE STAR Student. He named Gwinnett School of Mathematics, Science, and Technology’s Julia Rachkovskiy, a computer science teacher, as his STAR Teacher. Mahajan received the $2,500 SouthState Bank Scholarship, and Rachkovskiy $2,500 SouthState Bank Award and the $500 Mozelle Christian Award.
Twenty-seven PAGE STAR Student Region Winners were state finalists in the annual STAR program for high school seniors.
The search for the State PAGE STAR Student began earlier this school year with the naming of local STAR Students from more than 600 participating public and independent high schools across the state. In turn, those STAR Students then recognized the teacher who had the most influence on their success as their STAR Teacher.
To obtain the STAR nomination, high school seniors must have the highest score on any single test date of the SAT and must be in the top 10 percent or top 10 students of their class, based on GPA.
“Recognizing these outstanding students and their teachers in region events and then at the state event each year is our great honor,” said PAGE Executive Director Craig Harper. “We are pleased to be a major sponsor and administrator for the STAR program to ensure that Georgia’s excellent students and teachers receive the attention they’ve earned through their success.”
Sponsors for the 2024 State PAGE STAR awards are PAGE, the PAGE Foundation, the Frances Wood Wilson Foundation, SouthState Bank, and the Mozelle Christian Endowment.
As the largest independent educator association in the state and nation, the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE) exists to support our members who serve in every Georgia public school. PAGE provides unparalleled legal coverage, legislative advocacy, professional learning, grants, and scholarships. PAGE honors and encourages educational excellence through student programs including Student Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR), Future Georgia Educators (FGE), Georgia Academic Decathlon (GAD), and PAGE Academic Bowl for Middle Grades.

Cobb DOT estimates that a roundabout will provide the biggest time reduction in getting through the Holly Springs-Post Oak Tritt intersection.
After holding an open house in February to solicit feedback on proposals to ease congestion at the intersection of Holly Springs Road and Post Oak Tritt Road, Cobb DOT has scheduled a similar public meeting this month.
The next open house is set for Tuesday, May 14, from 6-7:30 p.m. at the Mountain View Regional Library (3330 Sandy Plains Road) “to review community input received on the Holly Springs Corridor 2022 SPLOST project.”
Cobb DOT has presented three options for improvements at that intersection:
A roundabout costing $3.4 million
A signal upgrade costing $2.5 million
Right turn lanes costing $449,000
Another proposal includes a signal improvement at Holly Springs and Sandy Plains Road, at a cost of $383,000.
Those expenses don’t include acquiring right-of-way properties. The available budget overall is $3.9 million.
Cobb DOT said a roundabout would provide the best traffic relief option, in terms of reducing wait times (see table below).
If that’s done, the existing traffic signal would be removed, and a multilane roundabout would be constructed, similar to what’s on Hembree Road at the entrance to Pope High School.
The signal upgrade calls for through lanes going north and south as well as turn lanes in the north-, south- and eastbound lanes, with the signal rebuilt.
Those projects would take an estimated 16 months to complete.
The third option would add southbound and eastbound right lanes and rebuild the signal.
That option, plus the Holly Springs-Sandy Plains option, would take around six months to complete
Cobb DOT didn’t specify what proposed changes may be in store for the upcoming open house, but the project is still considered to be in the conceptual stage.

Present and previous educators and staffers at Hightower Trail Middle School recently celebrated together the school’s 30th anniversary with a photo-and-memorabilia walk down memory lane.
The Cobb County School District said in a release that the commemoration in the school’s media center included refreshments, laughs and plenty of nostalgia.
The tribute included composite staff photos from the past three decades, honoring “the the dedicated individuals who have played a pivotal role in shaping the school’s identity and fostering a culture of excellence.”
The event also took place on the same day of Hightower Trail’s Night of the Arts, highlighted by musical performances by students.
Hightower Trail opened its doors off Post Oak Tritt Road at the start of the 1993-94 school year, helping ease growing middle school attendance in the Pope High School cluster.
“We were beyond thrilled with the overwhelming turnout for our 30th Anniversary Celebration,” Hightower Trail principal Dr. Hannah Polk said in the release.
“How gratifying for the entire Hightower Trail family to witness current and former staff members become reacquainted and share their favorite husky memories. It is an honor and privilege to serve this incredible community as we look forward to the next 30 years of celebrating student success at Hightower Trail Middle School.”

A citizens group that scrutinizes Cobb County School District finances is inviting the public to an online information session next week to go over the proposed fiscal year 2025 budget.
Watching the Funds-Cobb (Facebook page) said the Zoom call is scheduled for next Tuesday, May 7, at 7 p.m. It’s open to anyone who wants to take part, but you must register in advance by going to this link.
Those who sign up will get a confirmation e-mail with more information about the session.
Watching the Funds-Cobb said that all seven Cobb Board of Education members have been asked to serve as panelists, but only Becky Sayler of Post 2 has agreed. The budget session will, according to its event listing:
help taxpayers understand the budget
earn about new laws going into effect impacting our property taxes, millage rates and district funding
learn how to contact board members to provide input into the budget, as allowed by law.
The Cobb school district’s proposed budget is $1.85 billion, up from the current FY 2024 budget of $1.5 billion that lasts through June 30.
It includes pay raises for most full-time employees ranging from 4.4 percent to 9 percent, and holds the property tax rate at 18.7 mills.
(Proposed FY 2025 budget documents can be found by clicking here.)
The budget was presented to the Cobb school board and was tentatively adopted, which means the district can properly advertise it to the public.
Formal adoption is scheduled for May 16, following the second required public hearing.
But Watching the Funds-Cobb was among those last week calling for more opportunities for public comment on the budget, especially given the significant spending increase.
Some complained the public hadn’t had time to look through the extensive documents which were posted only a short time before the first public hearing last Thursday, hours after the budget presentation.
“Sadly, you hold the minimum hearings required by law, and you hold them on the same day of these votes,” Watching the Funds-Cobb leader Heather Tolley Bauer said, noting how other local school districts provide citizens more opportunities to review and comment on their budgets.
“While they give their stakeholders months, you give us only hours, sending a clear message that you want our money but not our opinions.”

Recently the Whataburger fast food chain filed plans with the Cobb Zoning Office to replace the nearly 7,000-square foot restaurant building and construct a new facility on the same site.
It would be the fifth Whataburger location in Cobb County, but a site plan amendment is needed to do so.
According to the preliminary files (you can read them here), there are a number of stipulations dictating future land use for the 1.31-acre parcel.
Among them are restrictions against a fast-food restaurant and anything with a drive-through service. The Whataburger site plan, drawn up by a Cumming-based architect, calls for a double-lane drive-through fronting Sandy Plains Road.
Those were among the stipulations included in a 1998 pending litigation settlement between Cobb County and Sembler Family Partnership, a retail developer, over a rezoning case that permitted the O’Charley’s.
The land once belonged to the prominent Gordy’s family (of Varsity restaurant fame) that owned many parcels in the area, and is part of a larger retail center currently anchored by a Target store.
Cobb property tax records indicate that the land, owned by the 1987 Donig Living Trust Nov 23 87, sold for $2.575 million in 2004 and has an an appraised value of nearly $2 million.
The Cobb Board of Commissioners is scheduled to hear the request on May 21, and the zoning staff has not yet issued a full analysis or a recommendation.
Rezoning isn’t needed because the community retail commercial (CRC) designation includes restaurants.
Whataburger, which started in Texas in 1950, has nearly 1,000 restaurants, mostly in Texas and the South.
There are three open in Cobb: On Cobb Parkway near Akers Mill Road, on Barrett Parkway near I-75 and at Chastain Road and George Busbee Parkway. Another is planned for the Acworth area.
There’s also a Whataburger on Highway 92 in Woodstock near I-575.
