March 26, 2026 — For students to have the best chance at academic success and to learn valuable lessons, it’s important that they are in the classroom.
In this week’s edition of The Inside Scoop, host David Owen talks with Cobb Schools Chief of Staff Sherri Hill and Assistant Director of Student Support and School Social Work Administrator Ana Murphy about the importance of school attendance.
Hill and Murphy explain why it’s important for students to attend school each day, especially in the spring, when students may start looking ahead to summer break.
Even a few missed days throughout the year can quickly add up and affect a student’s progress.
In the podcast, listeners will hear a deeper discussion about how time away from the classroom can impact student growth and learning. The Cobb team members also share practical advice for families on how to set their children up for success, including overcoming common challenges that families face.
