Among the recent retirees of the Cobb County School District are several people who served at schools in East Cobb for more than 30 years.
They were honored last week as part of a 335-member group that retired in 2020, 2021 and 2022 in the first such event since before the COVID-19 pandemic.
The luncheon at Roswell Street Baptist Church featured remarks from Cobb schools Superintendent Chris Ragsdale, and several board members were also present.
Among the longest-serving retirees were Shane Amos, a teacher and coach at Walton High School for 36 years; Wanda Waldrop, a custodian at Addison Elementary School, who served 35 years; and Nancy Janas, a teacher at Mountain View Elementary School for 35 years.
Also honored was Mary Ortland, the longtime nurse at Dodgen Middle School.
The retirees worked a combined 7,523 years in the Cobb County School District.
