As we head back to class this week, weāre sending all of our well wishes to our incredible teaching staff who are poised to do great things with kids this year!
We are thrilled to have been able to retain a significantly higher percentage of our teachers than the state average the last three years. This is a testament to our fantastic leadership team supporting the important work happening in our classrooms, and the commitment of our teachers to the students they serve. We are so proud to serve our community!
We also have all of our classroom teaching positions fully staffed -- and great learning is already underway! Thank you, Concord teachers and welcome to our new teachers! Weāre glad you are here. #WeAreConcord #ConcordPride
