Hello, and welcome to East Side Elementary.  I am Pat Mabry, School Secretary.  I began my career at East Side in 1989 as a Kindergarten Paraprofessional.  I was a paraprofessional for three years, then was hired as the school secretary.  I enjoy my job, the day to day operation of the school, working with the  students, parents, administrators, and staff. 

I was born in Marietta, Georgia and attended all Cobb County Schools.  My husband and I have been married for 34 years, and we are the proud parents of a wonderful daughter, Leann.  Leann is a 2005 graduate of Kennesaw State University with a degree in Communication/Public Relations, she is currently back at KSU working toward a second degree in Early Childhood Education.  In my spare time I enjoy reading, baking, and spending time with Leann and her dog Charlie.

Now, meet the rest of  the Office Staff:

My name is Yvonne Jorgensen and I have been the East Side Bookkeeper since 1989.  I have been married for 38 years to Terry and have two children.  Stephanie has two children (Walker and Katie) and her husband, Farrell, is a native Marietta man; my son JR (for Junior) is going to Kennesaw State University.  I have lived in Marietta most of my life, with the exception of several years traveling when my husband was in the Army.

Beginning with the 2007-2008 school year there will be two new faces in the front office. Pennie Barcelli and Audrey Nutt will be joining the "Front Office Family". These two ladies will be the SchoolMax Clerk and the Attendance Clerk. Please drop by the office and say hello and make them feel welcome.
