The Cottage School, often referred to as TCS or Cottage, is a special education
school located in Roswell, Georgia, United States. It focuses on elementary, middle, and high school students with special needs.

History

The Cottage School was formed in 1985 by founders Jacque and Joe Digieso. While it initially began as only a high school, the school eventually expanded to include middle elementary school.

Many of the school's buildings on its 24-acre campus are renovated residential homes purchased over time, which is also the reason for the name "The Cottage School."

By the start of the 2023-24 school year, TCS had students from grades 3-12. In 2024, the school purchased and renovated a nearby school campus for use as an elementary school. To fill the new teaching space, TCS now includes grades K-2 in its elementary school program.[5]
