Wren Avenue Elementary

Wren Avenue Elementary sits in central Concord, a working-class corner of the Bay Area's East Contra Costa region where families tend to put down roots and stay. The school serves a predominantly Hispanic community and, like many schools in Mt. Diablo Unified, faces real academic challenges — scores in English, math, and science fall in the lower single digits statewide. Families who are weighing their options here would do well to look closely at what the school offers beyond the numbers, including any bilingual support or enrichment programs, and to stay actively involved in their child's learning journey.
