Fall Festival Information

Not only does the late summer bring the start of a new school year, we also look forward to the Concordia Fall Festival right after Labor Day. If you are new to our community, our street fair is a local tradition that dates back over a century. It is a time for all in our community to come together and celebrate our heritage, renew old friendships and reminisce.

The fair also brings a few problems. Our students seem to find ways to collect items and gadgets that are better off left at home. These include noise makers, squirt guns, disappearing ink, stuffed animals and laser pointers. These items will be confiscated if brought to school. So, check those pockets and book bags for these treasures.

As we have in the past, we will be dismissing early on Friday, September 11. We will dismiss the elementary students beginning at 11:40 am. The Kids Country Contests are held downtown (6th and Main) on Friday afternoon beginning at 1:30 pm. If you would like your child to leave school in a manner other than normal, please write a note in their agenda and let us know. This will make the early dismissal much smoother for everyone. Children will be expected to follow their normal routine if we are not notified otherwise. Breakfast will be served on Friday but lunch will not be served.
