Concord High School
About Us
Welcome to the Concord family!
Concord is a community of learners striving for academic excellence in a safe, caring, supportive environment. We ask our students to be clear about why they are here. They develop goals and a plan for their future and be responsible for their behavior. At Concord High School, we are bonded by a common philosophy, mission, and set of principles and goals called the "Concord Way."
