Greetings Parents and Families:

We are very proud to announce that our own Brittany Williams was selected
as the Channel 6 (cable 9) STUDENT OF THE WEEK for Nov. 29-Dec. 3.
Congratulations to an outstanding Cobb Cub!

Congratulations to the Cobb Middle School chorus for an astounding display
of vocal musical excellence last Thursday night during our annual fall
concert.  Special thanks to our director Mrs. Jodi Drew and our accompanist
Ms. Vicki Threadgill.  Also, the chorus represented our school very well on
Monday, Dec. 6th at a command performance at our state capitol.  The
combined chorus of boys and girls was exquisite!

The Cobb Middle School band again delivered a riveting performance on
Monday night.  The annual fall concert under the direction of Mr. Bill
Miller featured an array of music that was performed with precision and
skill by our young men and women.  They were awesome!

We are so proud of our ALL DISTRICT BAND members!  They are as follows:
Kathleen Park, Wourtney Warren, Kyle Mallari, Graham Hawkes, Jonathan
Carrasco, and Brandon Davis.  They will be conducted by Dr. Patrick
Dunnagin, FSU Band Director and they will perform in concert in late
January with details to be announced later.
