As many of you know, September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and our Sr. High Health class would like to once again try and make a difference. We will be selling t-shirts until September 10 with all the proceeds going to Fight Like A Kid. Order forms went home with all elementary students and you can pick up an order form at the high school office. Shirts will be black with white and gold lettering.
CHS Student Council will be hosting a blood drive on Wednesday, September 8 from 9:00-2:00 in the high school library. Donations help our school earn scholarship money for each year’s senior class. Donors also receive free A1C blood sugar testing, a t-shirt, and one ticket to the Little Rock Zoo. To make an appointment, use the link:

Please remember to bring your mask as both the school and ABI require masks.
This September we are going GOLD to bring an awareness to childhood cancer. Join us by wearing your gold every Friday this month!

After careful thought and consideration, Concord Schools has adopted a Quarantine Mitigation Plan based on daily Covid-19 cases within our District boundaries. This is not a blanket mask mandate but based on local data. Currently the number of daily cases for CSD is over 100 per 10,000 residents. Due to these numbers, students K-12 and all faculty will be required to wear a mask starting this Wednesday. Attached is the Plan as well as the chart used to determine when masks will be required.
Sign up today!
Below you will find a class supply list for both elementary and 7th/8th grade students. 9th-12th students will receive their list on the first day of school.
Join us for Open House!
