Proof in the Product
The American-based curriculum produces students who are articulate, creative, confident, and skilled at problem solving - and with a love of learning.
Ready to Learn
Selective admissions policies keep the level of English high at Concordia, guaranteeing that the academic program maintains a good pace.
Character Matters
At Concordia, the Christian teachers go beyond just teaching the mind. By living their faith day to day, they model and teach values like integrity, respect, responsibility, and service.
Called to the Classroom
Concordia has a team of talented, experienced, and caring teachers who see teaching as a calling. They are ever aware that parents have entrusted them with God's most precious gift, their children.
Middle Kingdom Studies
Learning is approached from an international perspective at Concordia, with a special focus on China and Asia. Service projects, academic studies, field trips, and educational China travel (Grade 5 to Grade 12) give students opportunities to explore and understand the Middle Kingdom.
Parents as Partners
Parents and teachers are partners in education at Concordia. Classroom doors are always open to parents, and school-home communication is a priority.
More Mandarin
Chinese language learning is a priority at Concordia. Students from Kindergarten to Grade 12 study Chinese every day (with another language option beginning in Grade 8).
Individualized Learning
Small class sizes and combined classrooms mean students get much personal attention from their teachers.
Top Tech
Technology isn't a class at Concordia; it's a way of learning. Classroom computers and a laptop program for Middle and High School students mean technology is highly integrated into the learning process.
College Prep
University-level Advanced Placement courses open doors to a universe of knowledge usually unexplored in High School, and AP exams offer students the opportunity to earn credit or advanced standing at most U.S. colleges and universities.
