Welcome To Concordia Elementary

Concordia Elementary exists to partner with parents, helping to fill their children’s elementary years with Christ-centered experiences, love, and engaging learning. A great school begins with a great community; the Concordia Elementary community is united in focusing on what is best for students. The education students receive at Concordia Elementary is Christ-centered and nationally accredited. We were recognized in 2020 as a National Blue Ribbon School for high achievement. Students excel at Concordia Elementary because of the partnership between teachers, students, and parents working together to ensure that our students receive the best education possible.
Concordia Students are Faith Secure, World Ready, Kingdom Leaders, which begins at Concordia Elementary. Concordia Elementary students are Faith Secure in the Biblical truths that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, lived a perfect life, died, and rose again to redeem all humankind. Faith is part of daily classroom life and is the focus of our weekly chapel services. Concordia Elementary students are World Ready, presented with learning opportunities that are developmentally appropriate and prepare students for future growth and success. Concordia Elementary students are Kingdom Leaders. Surrounded by a nurturing community, they take on age-appropriate leadership and service opportunities and begin the process of becoming the future leaders of our church and world.
At Concordia Elementary, we know that one size does not fit all students. Parents of students at Concordia Elementary have two fantastic program options, Concordia Academy and Concordia Ignite. I am excited that you are taking the time to learn more about our school, programs, and community! I also look forward to meeting you and sharing more about the Concordia Elementary experience! As a team and individuals, our priority is your child’s education and well-being. We will work tirelessly to see that each child receives the greatest benefits from our educational program.

Highlights
- We know the cross is the central part of a child’s life and education. Faith is an essential part of our day as we work and learn together. It is not only incorporated through our religion curriculum and chapel services, but is present throughout the day in our learning and relationship building.
- We know it takes teamwork to provide quality, Christ-Centered education. Teachers, parents, and students work together to provide optimal growth opportunities. We work hard to foster strong collaboration and create a caring, family atmosphere in each classroom so students can thrive.
- We know that some of the most important learning at our school is not content, but helping to develop problem solving, communication, and executive functioning skills, which will serve our students well beyond their elementary years.
- We know a quality curriculum, facilitated by a top-tier staff, provides the best opportunities for student learning. Concordia has adopted a curriculum review procedure to ensure our students are learning from excellent materials, but more importantly the Concordia Elementary staff is composed of excellent educators who facilitate student learning and exploration, provide students with opportunities for choice, and foster a love of the education process so that students might become readers and learners for life.
- We know students learn by doing. We provide opportunities for students to learn through play, the manipulation of learning resources, learning centers, experimentation, and the use of a variety of technological tools. We encourage student exploration and discovery while providing guidance and context to help students develop foundational life skills and concepts.
- We know the arts are essential to a complete elementary education. Concordia Elementary students are provided rich fine arts opportunities including art, general music education, band, strings, vocal music, and performance opportunities.
- We know movement and play are fundamental to great elementary education. All students are provided recess each day, one hour of PE each week, and multiple opportunities for movement in the classroom.
