Cobb County School District employees who are retiring at the end of the current academic year were honored at a luncheon last week at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre.
They include Bells Ferry Elementary School Principal Gail May, who is concluding a 38-year career in the district.
She’s among the more than 200 personnel—teachers, bus drivers, principals, food services assistants, an assistant superintendent, and a variety of support staff—who contributed nearly 5,000 years of service, according to the district.
