I graduated from Concord High in 2018.The school is fine - the art department could use more financial support, there are four languages available to take (German, Latin, Spanish, and French) and the German program is great - there's a GAPP program, German American Participation Program or there was when I went there. The culture of the music programs are all excellent, though I heard that casting is pretty biased for the theater program. The reason that I have to give a low score for Concord High is that there is absolutely no structure in place for helping kids with their mental health. I was depressed and suicidal for all of high school and despite support being offered as a disclaimer of sorts when anything traumatic happened any attempt to reach out for support was snubbed. There are several guidance counselors who simply do not care about their students - some kids had great support from their guidance counselors and some had absolutely none. There are teachers who care about the kids well being but the administration does not care. If your kid does not have any mental health issues at all this is a good school, but if your kid has any kind of mental illness they will not receive the support they need from this school.

I work as an attorney in Special Education and also had a child go through the IEP process. I am impressed with the time and funding put into this program. Parents and/or students who are dissatisfied seem to be unable to work WITH the school district. There are many awesome teachers who have been working there for years and that are devoted to children’s success. Physical plant improvements are being made. Safety is taken very seriously! Speak to a parent who actually knows the school and that is a contributing member of the school society. You will be pleased !

Excellent school and atmosphere to raise a child.
