GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best part of Concord is the school spirit and all the traditions we do to make our school great. Teachers are also great because you have teachers who support you and you can rely on them. The worst thing at Concord is the food and the fact that fights happened a lot in the school and it would be scary to walk down the hallways.

I am a student in the IB program that is highly involved with sports, clubs, and other extracurriculars. Concord's diversity and entire student body makes it a fun place to be and makes me proud to go to Concord. I would like to see the amount of fights and use of illegal substances decrease.

The IB program is very good in the scope of Cabarrus County, but not compared to other IB schools in the state.

I enjoyed attending Concord High. I was in the IB program and liked the challenges those courses gave me. Though I cannot attest for standard classes, I know the teachers I had were excellent and they helped me tremendously. I also love the school spirit here, especially when it comes to our rival....

The guidance counselor is literally the only thing good about this school. Racial bias plays a large role in everyday learning as does athletic ability. If your child is not into sports, or is white, best of luck to you.
