“How Great Thou Art” is the title of our Marching Band Show this year. It uses Michelangelo's awe inspiring artwork from within The Sistine Chapel to encourage and define our own walk of faith. Original music by Alex Yoder takes us on a journey of discovery, reflection and celebration as we explore the ultimate spiritual connection!

All 5th through 8th grade students are invited to a free Cadet football game at 7 p.m. Sept. 27 at Zollner Stadium.

When I hear people say, “Schools should teach Home Ec,” all I can say is, “We’re doing it!” Home Ec, now known as Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS), goes beyond baking cookies to teaching practical skills and career pathways.

On Monday, August 12, a group of twenty or so faculty and staff members gathered together to have a prayer walk. We started in prayer together and then dispersed around the building and grounds. Each person had names of fellow faculty and staff members and names of students to pray for by name. Together, we prayed for our whole student body and the teachers and staff who serve at Concordia.

Welcome to the 2019-2020 school year! May this school year be filled with excitement and blessings as we grow through service in faith, intellect, and community. New school years are exciting and nervous events. Where are my classes located? Who is near my locker and can I successfully operate the combination lock? What is Mr./Ms./Mrs. Teacher going to be like? God is with us. Each of us is His child: precious, loved, forgiven.

In the last several months, some of our Alumni have been called to their heavenly Home. Over the eight years I have been at Concordia, I have attended hundreds of visitations of CLHS grads. Many of these families have children or grandchildren who are alumni or current students. This culture goes back to the 1930’s. We have some 4th generation families and it is a blessing for the school.

Today, another athletic season officially gets underway for all high schools in the state of Indiana.  It is an exciting time for athletes and coaches as the new season begins. All teams start fresh with a 0-0 record.  Athletes have another chance to make their marks in their respective sports, and coaches look forward to teaching their players both athletic and life skills.

Throughout the 2019-20 school year, the CLHS community will be exploring the theme “Renewing the Mind . . . with Christ at the Center,” which is based upon Romans 12:2, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
