While school teachers and administrators are on summer vacation, the Cobb County School District continues to make staffing changes for the 2025-26 school year, which begins in early August. 
We noted last month the schools in East Cobb that will be getting new principals, and the district also has announced a number of changes with assistant principals.
Seven of those changes involve schools in East Cobb, and these new assignments will become effective on July 10:
- Melissa Paige Guthrie, reassignment to Assistant Principal, Bells Ferry Elementary School from Assistant Principal, Bullard Elementary School;
- Lashonda Smith, reassignment to Assistant Principal, Sedalia Park Elementary School from Assistant Principal, Pitner Elementary School;
