Summary

Concord High School in Wilmington, DE, is a comprehensive public high school serving 994 students in grades 9-12 within the Brandywine School District. The school has earned a strong reputation, ranking 6th out of 41 high schools statewide for 2025-2026—a significant jump from 13th place the previous year—and has consistently earned 4-star ratings in 8 of the last 10 years.

Concord's standout strength is its literacy and writing instruction. The school's SAT English Language Arts proficiency rate of 59.67% far exceeds the state average of 44.02%, and its Essay proficiency of 76.61% nearly doubles the state average of 43.01%. In fact, Concord's writing scores even surpass those of selective-admission schools like Calloway (Cab) School of the Arts (71.55%) and Conrad Schools of Science (58.28%). The school also leads its district peers—Mount Pleasant High School and Brandywine High School—in nearly every academic metric. While math proficiency (29.28%) remains an area for growth, it still outpaces district and state averages. Science scores have improved dramatically, jumping from 14.88% proficiency in 2022-2023 to 39% in 2025-2026.

Beyond academics, Concord excels at keeping students engaged and on track. The graduation rate of 91.8% exceeds both district and state averages, and the dropout rate of just 0.7% is nearly six times better than the state average of 3.9%. The school has also shown remarkable recovery from pandemic-era chronic absenteeism, dropping from a peak of 32.5% to 16.7%—now below the state average. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.8:1 and lower per-student spending than its district counterparts, Concord demonstrates efficient resource use while delivering strong outcomes. For families seeking a school with exceptional writing instruction, high graduation rates, and proven resilience, Concord is a compelling choice.
