Children return to Cobb County public schools on Monday, Aug. 4, and Marietta schools on Friday, Aug. 1!
Cobb departments are helping kids prepare by collecting and distributing donated supplies and backpacks.

As you shop for back-to-school supplies, if you are able, please buy a few extra items to support our school supply drives.

Backpacks and Badges School Supply Drive through Aug. 1
Donate new backpacks, notebooks, pencils, folders, crayons, and more at:

• any Cobb County Police Precinct 
• Austell Market Suites, 313 Austell Powder Springs Road, Suite 313, Austell

The backpacks will be loaded with school supplies and distributed at the National Night Out event on Aug. 5.
This special summer event is a partnership between Cool Kids Committee Inc. and the Cobb County Police Department
