Crimson Notes – March 23, 2015
Concord High School’s Weekly Newsletter
from Gene Connolly, Principal
We will ensure every student has full access to our
District’s curriculum.
We will coordinate our instructional programs
when more than one of us is working with a student.
We will use the data we collect to closely monitor
our students’ progress and adjust our instruction
when a student is not making progress.
“In the clearing stands a boxer, and a fighter by his trade, and he carries the reminders, of
ev’ry glove that laid him down, and cut him till he cried out, in his anger and his shame, “I am
leaving. I am leaving. But the fighter still remains.” Paul Simon
