Mrs. Cozzi
My name is Jody Cozzi, and my family has lived in Mascoutah since 2011. My family loves Mascoutah so much that my husband retired from the AF, and we continue to live in this fabulous community! I have been teaching 3 yr old Preschool at HCS since 2013. I have four children Melanie, Cas, Avery, and Leo. Leo is a Freshman at MHS. All four graduated from HCS. Melanie is a Nurse in Denver, Cas is in third year Seminary, and Avery is a Freshman at Benedictine College. Dixie, our 7 yr old dog, is also a part of our family. I feel so very blessed to teach at HCS! Students are incredible and there’s no place I’d rather be!
