Cobie begins teaching career with preschool at North Side Elementary

Sometimes, the first choice may be the best bet.

Cobie said choosing Hamp-ton-Dumont was a relatively easy decision, as the district and the community felt like a natural fit.
“It just felt right and I felt like it was a good decision and it was,” she said. “In high school, I played sports here, I came up for the fair so I was familiar with Hampton. It didn’t feel like I’d get homesick.
