Attention all current 8th-11th graders! The Concord Color Guard will be hosting auditions to select the 2023 ensemble on May 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, from 4-6:30 pm at Concord High School in the dance/multi-purpose room! During auditions, students will be taught a beginner-level flag and dance routine and will perform in large groups on May 3rd! This is designed to be a low-stress and fun way to give color guard a try! We will teach you everything you need to know, and no experience is required!
The Concord Color Guard uses elements of dance, flags, rifles, and props to bring visual life to the music played by the Concord Marching Minutemen, and performs at Cedar Point, all home football games, and marching band contests all over the state! We are a 5 time State Champion and 37-time ISSMA marching band state finalist!
Color guard students will receive a fine art credit AND a PE credit for Semester 1 of the 2023-2024 school year! Bussing from CJHS to CHS will be provided for all 8th graders directly after school.
To register for the audition or ask any questions, please email Mr. Prebys at rprebys@concord.k12.in.us

Four of our fabulous fourth graders recently received a “Knowledge is Dynamite” award from the Kiwanis Club of Elkhart!
From left, Kayiona Talley (South Side), Sajia Henagan (East Side), Cynthia Guzman (Ox Bow), and Perla Navarro (West Side). Each school nominated a student to receive the award.
ABOUT THE AWARD
"‘Knowledge is Dynamite" is an award that celebrates a child’s realization that education and hard work is a GOOD thing, that effort in the classroom and work at home bring accomplishment, that learning and knowledge has so much potential power it is like the explosive dynamite. We honor kids that are good leaders, who are kind, respectful, hard-working, diligent and an overall great kid. This may not be the child that gets the best grades or is picked first at recess for a game, but this is someone that makes the teachers day a good one, even on the bad days, and someone that you would all be proud to represent your school outside of your walls.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS: The Concord High School Dollars for Scholars is seeking your support for a fundraiser to benefit student scholarships! Order Chipotle on Wednesday, April 12, and use the code J64FN8P for pickup, or show this flyer at the restaurant.
