At North Cobb School For International Studies, we believe that students need to be involved in their campus and their community. Our Magnet students participate in extracurricular activities on our campus, give back to their community through service, and take advantage of the wealth of IS-related activities that the Atlanta area offers.
Students are expected to participate in the following:
- Community Service
- Extra-curricular activities
- International Studies Experiences
COMMUNITY SERVICE
We ask that students commit to at least two community service activities each year. Students document their community service hours and submit them to Ms. Carolina Mora (carolina.morazapata@cobbk12.org). North Cobb High School (not the magnet program) awards graduation medals to any student who documents:
- 100 hours for a bronze medal
- 150 hours for a silver medal
- 200 hours for a gold medal
EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
Students should strive for involvement in school-related activities each year. We recommend students identify two activities. Examples include
- Marching Band
- Tribal Connections
- Model UN
- NJROTC
- Kennesaw Youth Council
- Young Aldermen
- Science Fair
- Science Olympiad
- Mock Trial
- Robotics/TSA

Complete the Extra-Curricular Activities form and turn in to the Magnet Coordinator by May 1st of each school year.
INTERNATIONAL STUDIES EXPERIENCES
International experiences are events, outside of school, which students take part in that relate to our international studies focus. They range from cultural festivals to museum exhibits. There are limitless opportunities for students and families to take part in events that are of personal interest to them.
