**Weather Alert: Early Dismissal Today**
Due to the potential for severe weather and storms beginning around 2:00 PM, Concord Schools will be dismissing early today at 12:30 PM. This early dismissal will help ensure that our bus riders and staff can get home safely before the storms begin.
Please make any necessary arrangements for your child’s pickup and stay safe. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Introducing the 1st Annual Midnight Basketball! Concord students in grades 7-12 are invited to participate. Entry fee to the event is $5 with $1 entry for all tournament games (baggo, pickleball, ping pong, dodgeball) played throughout the night. Concessions are also available ranging from $1-2: drinks, candy, pizza, etc. Tickets available for sale now with Mr. York, Mrs. York, or Mrs. Courtney.
Dear Concord School Parents,
We are closely monitoring the weather forecast for tomorrow, and we understand that there may be potential severe weather in our area. Your child’s safety is our top priority, and we are taking all necessary precautions to ensure their well-being.
If a tornado warning is issued at the time of school dismissal, we will be holding all buses and students until the warning is lifted. We believe that the school, with its designated classroom safety shelters, is the safest place for the overwhelming majority of our students and staff during such an event.
We will continue to monitor the situation and keep you informed as needed. Should any changes to our regular dismissal procedure occur, we will update you promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Sincerely,
Travis Fletcher
Superintendent
