Mrs. Cozzi
My name is Jody Cozzi, and I have lived in Mascoutah for 8+ yrs. My family loves Mascoutah so much that my husband retired from the AF, and we continue to live in this fabulous community! This is my seventh year teaching at HCS. I have four children Melanie, Cas, Avery, and Leo. Leo is a 7th grader at HCS. My other three graduated from HCS. Melanie is a Junior in Benedictine College, Cas is a Freshman at BC, and Avery is a Junior at MHS. Dixie, our 5 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!
