Thank you
Concord High School: Had a little "hiccup" with the Home Access Center (HAC), but parents are letting us know that it's up and running now. Thanks for your patience.
Concord High School students: This is just a friendly reminder, if you would like to check your schedule before Monday, you can access that schedule through your HAC account. If you can't access your account, every 7th-12th grade student will receive a schedule Monday morning. All 7th-12th grade students will report to the new gym Monday morning. Remember to wear a mask. We will practice social distancing as you arrive. We are so excited to see you!
This is a reminder that the first day of school will be this Monday August 24th. We are excited and ready to see our students! Friendly reminder that all students 3rd grade and above will be required to wear masks on campus when social distancing cannot be achieved. All students, regardless of age, will be required to wear a mask while riding the bus. If your child is exempt from wearing a mask due to one of the governor's exemptions, please provide a note from your PCP to the front office. If your child needs a mask, the school will provide one. Also, students who are car-riders will need to enter through the front of their school buildings so that their temperature can be taken. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students and staff safe.
