Concord high school is a elite school which alows cultral diversity. It also is filled with caring staff. The robotics program is the only one in the district and is an amzeing program. Exspesally when it comes to the Boo Belly project. (it is a robotics thing) Also the physics class is filled with students willing to learn. It is lead by a great teacher who makes learing such a complex concept a fun exspreance. There are lots of fun labs to learn like the egg drop and the flying pig. This is a great school and any student would be lucky to get into this school. Theis is also a great sports program in whixh we lead the school to glory. Go Concord High!!!!!!

Coming from a private school background (all my life, as a parent and for my child's elementary school career) we are pleasantly satisfied with our experience at CHS. They have a wide array of extracurricular activities and the means to academic success are available if a student seeks it. It is true that it is not as easy to find the inspiration to remain academically engaged in a public school. But such is the student population. The teachers overall are engaged, motivated, hardworking and seek to understand the majority of their students. All in all, CHS does a wonderful job.

It is a place for slackers. The students don't want to try and those that do are held back. Teachers here don't care about students and often aren't prepared for class. The only bearable thing here is friends. If you don't have friends... good luck surviving.

As a student who graduated and is about to graduate from college this year, it had a fantastic arts program, probably one of the best around. I don't know if it still is, but the English Department was also very good.

Concord High is so supportive, and they're always pushing for us to go forward. The Choir, Band and Drama programs especially. We are strong academically and we always work together. When our VP's wife died last year we were the first to step up and start helping him, we had a penny drive and sold bracelets, raising over a thousand dollars.

The school itself can be very pretty, especially in the spring when all the cherry blossom trees are in bloom and everybody is super nice. Teachers are generally good at what they do. The extra stuff besides the academic are really good too, and it's nice to belong to a school of winners, like our choirs and bands, sometimes sports.

Besides regular/general education students numbering approximately 1400 students, Concord High has about 200 special needs children, including deaf and hard-of-hearing students, who receive an education appropriate to their abilities. All are taught that they are valuable and worthwhile young people, and are encouraged to do their best as they learn among the other students.
