Bob Cohn is the GRASP Advisor for New Kent High School - newkent@grasp4va.org

Hello to all. I am extremely happy to be part of the GRASP team and I look forward to meeting the students at New Kent.

As one of the "senior" advisors (in terms of age, not experience), I am reminded constantly of the ever-increasing costs of college, especially compared to what my family and I had to pay many — and I do mean many — years ago. This motivates me even more to help reduce your college expenses.

I moved to Richmond more than three years ago after working for several newspapers as a sportswriter. I enjoyed the work and sometimes the travel, but that's all in the past. Since moving, I have worked part-time as a high school tutor (English) in the Richmond Public Schools system. It's been quite challenging, notably during the 2020-2021 school year, but I believe I have something to offer to enable students to succeed. I feel the same way about this new challenge with GRASP. I am here to help.
