My name is Sandy Austin. I graduated from Appalachian State University in Boone, NC with a Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in Psychology.  My husband Jerry and I live here in Alpharetta and love this area very much.

Kristie Fitzgerald - fitzgeraldk@fulton.k12.ga.us

My name is Kristie Fitzgerald and I grew up in Marietta and attended Cobb County schools. I just recently graduated from Auburn with a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education-WAR EAGLE! I am so thrilled and fortunate to be teaching at Cogburn Woods. I know there is a great community support at this school and I couldn’t be anymore excited to work with everyone. Teaching is my passion and joy and when I am not doing that, I LOVE: Auburn football, vacations, playing any sports (tennis and softball), hanging out with my friends and family, cooking, and skiing anywhere. I look forward to working with the Cogburn family!

Joy Fullilove - Fullilove@fulton.k12.ga.us

My name is Joy Fullilove. I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to meet and work with you and your children at Cogburn Woods Elementary School. It's going to be  a wonderful year! I graduated from Wingate University in North Carolina, in 1995 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. After graduation, I spent two years teaching at Hapeville elementary School in Fulton County. For the next few years I traveled with my husband as his engineering job moved us west to Colorado, and then south to Florida. I was excited to have the opportunity to come back home to Georgia three years ago and accept a position at Ocee Elementary School teaching third grade. I currently live in Cumming, Georgia, with my husband, Marvin, and our three dogs. My husband is a teacher in the math department at Milton High School. He coaches golf and the offensive line for the Milton Eagles football team. You'll find me cheering at the football games on Friday nights during the fall! My mother works at Summit Hill Elementary School.
