I am a teacher at the best little secret in North Georgia:
Cohutta Elementary School. I am privileged to work with dedicated, caring teachers who are always searching for ways their students can lean more. Need someone to put in extra time for an extra project? No problem. You'll get all kinds of volunteers. Need help teaching something?

Ask and you'll get lots of suggestions. These teachers truly care about their students, and it shows. Our students are loved, and they know it and show it.
This wouldn't be possible without the leadership and vision of our principal, Allyson Millican. She pushes teachers and students alike to strive to be better.
Whitfield County ALPHA teachers are in a class by themselves. Always searching for new ways to challenge our gifted children, they work countless extra hours and days.
Their support makes my job easier, and they inspire me to be a better teacher.
My Cohutta students are awesome! Their inquiring minds make my job a challenge. These children love learning, and they keep me on my toes.
One grandparent told me recently that Cohutta is the prettiest school he's ever seen. Enter and see colorful murals and student work everywhere. Our janitorial staff keeps our facility wonderfully clean and attractive, and our students take pride in their school.
Cohutta Elementary School is a great place to be, and that's why I love my job.
