Teachers are setting up rooms and putting safety precautions in place. We are ready to see our kids!
Things to consider....
Teachers reviewing content for virtual courses.
Concord Schools will be providing training sessions for its parents and students who have signed up for Concord Virtual Academy. This will be the time in which Chromebooks will be handed out to those who need them and students will learn how to access the online curriculum. The dates will be August 19th and 20th in the cafeteria. We have scheduled two days to allow for flexibility in schedules. You will only need to attend one day. The times will be 10:00-11:00 for high school and 11:00-12:00 for elementary for both days. We will be limiting the seating to student and one parent/guardian. Parents interested in enrolling their child in CVA can find the link on the District's website within the Re-entry Plan.
Concord Elementary will have its Open House next Tuesday August 11th from 5:00-7:00 PM. We are asking that only the student and one parent/guardian attend this function and everyone wear a mask while adhering to social distancing guidelines. Students will be provided with beginning of the school year paperwork as well as meet their teacher. We encourage all students both on-site and virtual to attend. This would also be the perfect opportunity for parents who have questions regarding virtual academy to meet with Mr. Fletcher.
Thank you
On August 10th, from 5:00-7:00 p.m., Concord High School will hold its annual Open House. In an effort to help practice social distancing, we are asking that only the student and one parent/guardian attend this function and everyone wear a mask. During this open house we will meet with grades 7-9 to select electives for their schedules for the upcoming school year. We will also take this opportunity to meet with grades 10-12 to discuss and develop schedules for the upcoming school year. Also, other items that will be available will be beginning of the school year paperwork, home computer use, whether your child will be on campus or off campus next school year, and other school related items. It is a “come and go” situation; just make sure to be here sometime between 5:00-7:00 p.m.
Another round of great flashback memories!!
We are ready to see our kids! Having major withdrawals.

Attention Graduating Seniors for the Class of 2020: there are about 14 of you all who have not filled out the senior exit information survey that Mr Tarver emailed you over a month ago. Much of that information will be used for the senior graduation ceremony at the end of July. Please fill that survey out as soon as possible. If, for some reason, you can't access that survey or you feel you never received the email, please email Mr. Tarver at steven.tarver@concordschools.org
Congratulations to Sarah Thomas and Annalise Cornett for being the recipients of the Rotary Club Scholarship of Cleburne County. We are very proud of you girls!
Pirate Family
With many schools starting to release their plans for the next school year, we know that many of our parents, students, and community members have questions. Please feel confident that we are working diligently on creating a plan that works best for Concord Schools. While many districts are rushing to release their plans for next year, we want to make sure we get things right initially, so we have taken more of a cautious approach. With new information and updates coming out daily from the governor and ADH, we feel this is the best approach. As we receive more guidance from the Department of Education, we will make sure to keep everyone up to date on any changes.
Thank you
Go Pirates!
Achieving Excellence Together
Cleburne County residents, please take time to fill out your 2020 U.S. Census form. While it may seem like an inconvenience or unimportant, not filling out the census has major consequences for our kids. The data collected is utilized in determining school funding. As of now, only 48% of Cleburne Co. residents have filled out the census. The link below will direct you to the online census form. If you do not have your census letter that contains your census ID, there's a link below that allows you to still fill out a form.
Thank you!!

Come out and support a great cause. As many of you know, Mrs. Margie passed away in a house fire on May 17th. There will be a BBQ banquet to help raise money for her husband John Tucker.
We have received questions asking if the district plans on providing off campus virtual learning for the upcoming 2020-2021 school year. The district will be providing that option to students who wish to go that route. However, we have every intention of starting school on August 13th with the safety of our students as the number one priority. The district has purchased and will continue to provide many resources to make sure our students receive a quality education while also maintaining a healthy and clean learning environment.
