Concord Academy was established as a school for girls in September 1922. Enrollment grew gradually from three in 1924 to twenty in 1948. The school's headmistress for the first 15 years was Elsie Garland Hobson, followed by Valerie Knapp (1937-40) and Josephine Tucker (1940-49).

The school enrolls 378 boarding and day students as of 2013-2014. In 1971, Concord Academy became the first all-girls' boarding school in New England to shift to a coeducational mode.

Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis; Queen Noor of Jordan - Widow of King Hussein of Jordan Peter R.
