When we say “community” at Concordia, we mean it; it’s not only about relationships, but about reconnecting, sharing, and growing together.

Alumni
If you have attended Concordia International School Shanghai, worked at Concordia, or have a child who was a student at Concordia, you are a Phoenix for life!

Greetings, Concordia Alumni!
At Concordia, we use the term alumni in a broad and inclusive way. It includes graduates, former students, parents of graduates, former parents, and former faculty—anyone who has shared in the life of our school.
Because of this, our alumni community spans the globe. No matter where life has taken you, you remain an important part of the Concordia story. In many ways, once a Phoenix, always a Phoenix—the connections formed here continue long after time on campus has ended.
We would love to hear what you’ve been up to. Your updates and stories help us celebrate the impact of our community and allow us to share those connections with current families and fellow alumni. We also hope to keep you informed about school and community events that provide meaningful opportunities to stay connected.
If you are interested in getting involved, there are many ways to do so—hosting an alumni gathering in your city, serving as a class representative, or supporting future reunions and events. These opportunities help strengthen relationships and make it easier for our alumni community to stay engaged.
If you would like to share an update or explore ways to get involved, please contact us at alumni@concordiashanghai.org.
