Last night, Concord High School proudly hosted the annual District Art Show. Families came out to support and admire the incredible creativity and talent of our students. It was a wonderful evening and a great success! #WeAreConcord #ConcordPride

Last week, Concord High School wrapped up a meaningful 10-week group session in partnership with the Northern Indiana Hispanic Health Coalition. Their program, "Somos Resilientes", created a safe space for students to explore important topics like emotional well-being, drug and alcohol prevention, healthy communication, school expectations, and cultural norms. The goal was to support students as they navigate a new culture while honoring their own—empowering them to succeed both in school and at home. Students received certificates of completion and expressed gratitude for the chance to be heard and supported. We're proud of their growth and thankful for this valuable partnership! #WeAreConcord #ConcordPride

Earlier this week, Concord Elementary Schools proudly hosted our Kindergarten Roundup events!

Concord Community Schools is announcing a transition in the boys basketball program at Concord HIgh School. At the next School Board meeting, the administration will recommend the approval of Derrick DeShone as Concord High School Dean of Students, filling an administrative position soon to be vacated by the retirement of Denise Tahara. In this role, Mr. DeShone will work with attendance and discipline. Since joining Concord in 2018, Coach DeShone has reinvigorated our youth basketball program, improved the success of the program and recently led the Minutemen to a conference championship. Mr. DeShone and his wife, Allison DeShone, are committed members of the Concord community. Allison is a kindergarten teacher at Concord East Side Elementary School. We appreciate Mr. DeShone’s years of service to Concord basketball and look forward to his success in his next position. With this transition, we are beginning the search for a new head Boys Basketball coach to ensure a smooth process and strong leadership for our student athletes. The search for the next head Boys Basketball coach will soon begin, and we are committed to finding a leader who will build on the program’s strengths.
