the opportunity to test each build like a scientist.

Marietta/Cobb Driver’s Education Program
Awarded $364,190
Georgia Driver’s Education Commission Grant
“Thank you to the
GDEC for helping
us keep teens safe
on our Georgia
roads”.
Marietta/Cobb Driver’s Education (MCDE), a joint
program of Cobb County Schools and Marietta City Schools,
received a $364,190 grant award from the Georgia Driver
Education Commission (GDEC). Grant funds are for the
purchase of 20 vehicles for driving instruction, textbooks for
additional classes, and safety equipment. MCDE serves high
school students in Marietta City, Cobb County, Bartow
County, Fulton County and surrounding areas.
“We appreciate GDEC for providing these needed
resources,” said Marietta Community School Director Cindi
Savage. “These funds will make it possible to promote and
encourage teen drivers’ successful completion of our high
quality, low cost, driver training.”
“Marietta/Cobb Driver’s Education Program continues
to set the standard for driver’s education both statewide and
nationally,” said MCS Superintendent Dr. Emily Lembeck.
“MCDE has grown into the largest teen program in the state,
serving students in counties beyond Cobb/Marietta and
offers a first rate course for minimal charge thus allowing a
large population of students to complete driving instruction.”
