Concord Community School District

Dear Parents/Guardians, We discovered our survey was not allowing responses from outside of the JCISD. We have corrected this issue and you should be able to submit a response. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. We need parent feedback. Please see the attached letter for an opportunity to give us input on the team-based teaching model. In advance, thank you for your time and partnership!

Attention 8th -12th grade students and parents! Seniors and their parent(s) are invited to stay afterward to get help creating their FSA ID, the first step in completing the FAFSA. Although the FAFSA is not scheduled to open until December 1st, the FSA ID can be created now. The benefit of creating the FSA ID now is that it takes a couple of days to get it verified, and if anything were to come up that they need other documentation to verify an account, it would not hold you up on completing the FAFSA itself when it does open.

Good evening, This is just a reminder that any students living in Amberton Village or getting picked up at the Eagles should be ready for the bus to arrive earlier than normal. Amberton Village: Approximately 6:45 AM Eagles: Approximately: 6:50 AM Any students getting on at the Tractor Supply in Albion that has had a bus change should have already been notified, but if there are any questions the drivers will have lists of who is on each bus. Thank you, Dale Wagner Transportation Director dale.wagner@concordschools.net

The Health Education team at the Jackson County Health Department will support the schools of Jackson County with resources and educational programs that promote health, wellness, and preventive practices among students, staff, and families. We are pleased to share this resource as part of our ongoing efforts to provide valuable health information. The first is our Parent Vaping Education Guide, designed to inform parents about vaping risks, how to recognize vaping devices and ways to support healthy choices for their children. Given the increase in the prevalence of vaping among youth, this guide offers practical insights and conversation starters for parents.

This is just a reminder that tomorrow November 6th will be a half day with a 11:05 AM dismissal. Parent teacher conferences are scheduled from 1:00-7:00 PM

Our School Wellness Program will be onsite November 6th during conferences. Stop by and meet our wellness team.

Good Morning! We have one week to complete as many of our Education Benefit Forms as possible. Please submit this information online at, https://concord.familyportal.cloud/. It is easy and quick to complete! These forms help determine how much funding we receive for Title I, Title II, Title IV, At-Risk, and E-Rate. These numbers also impact the level of grant funding we can receive. For example, we opened the School Wellness Program with a grant because we have a high percentage of our students eligible for free and reduced lunch. PLEASE take a few minutes to complete this form! We will be entering all families that completed the form into a drawing for prizes. The drawing will be held in the month of November! https://concord.familyportal.cloud/ Thank you!

Good morning, I want to say thank you to the parents and families that have helped make the last minute changes from Farmers Market to TSC in Albion smooth. We understand this isn't easy for everyone. We still need to continue using TSC until we hear more information from the city. Buses need to be loaded in the morning and departing by 7:20 AM to get everyone to school on time. Thank you again for your understanding, we will update you as we know more.
