“Every day, I try to do my very best to give my kids the absolute best,” Cohen said in a statement. “In addition to it being an honor, it is a blessing to represent the students, teachers, and all Henry County Schools personnel. I am proud and humbled to have the opportunity to receive the district's top honor.”
