Concord Academy provides final reports for your children electronically on the school’s Student Information Portal. These spring semester reports will be available through the Portal starting on Monday, June 19.

A very big thank you to all the parents who helped support CA Parents programs, events and activities this year. Your efforts have helped enrich the quality of student life, the parent experience and the greater Concord Academy community. CA’s level of parent involvement is a measure of how much you care. This article highlights of all that we’ve accomplished this year thanks to you.

The Exam Treats team would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the CA parent community. We are so grateful for the help and support from so many parents who made the exam treats such a success this year. From dropping off candy, sending in treats via Amazon, to helping us stuff and deliver the sweet treats to the students mailboxes — we could not have done it without you! A special thank you to Amy Sagalyn for her role in making the exam treats run so smoothly.  We hope you all have a wonderful summer!

The skies were bright on June 2 for Concord Academy’s 95th Commencement exercise. The class of 2017 and their families listened to many words of reflection, celebration, and encouragement, while the values of the community took pride of place in the Commencement address from Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey. The message was clear: The future is bright in the hands of this generation.

For her senior project, Nina He ’17 painted acrylic-on-canvas portraits of each of the 97 members of the class of 2017. She has donated them to Concord Academy. Watch her at work in this video.

Please contact Katie Wells as soon as possible if you or your guests need handicapped parking or wheelchair accessibility for Commencement. Families with guests who would appreciate a ride on a golf cart to the Chapel Lawn may drop them off at Aloian Circle and then proceed to park. Staff will be directing parking.

Parents, please read this important message about graduation parties from Head of School Rick Hardy.
