Our mission is to ensure all students’ academic success in a safe and connected environment.
A student’s ability to read is the most foundational and important skill a student will master and their success on that skill will impact their education and life. While teaching a student to read is not an easy task, Concord has made some strides in how we teach reading and writing in our early years.
This page provides a general overview of Concord’s Elementary School curriculum. Parents are encouraged to speak with their child’s teacher for more detailed information about course objectives. Curriculum questions that cannot be answered at the building level should be referred to the Education Department.
