During our recent Anoka-Hennepin Schools Preschool Information Night, we were excited to share the experiences of Ellie who attends preschool at Riverview Early Childhood Center in Brooklyn Park. Watch to see how high-quality early education is making a huge difference for our youngest learners.

There are 35 preschool classrooms across the school district. From early learning centers to elementary schools to high schools, all classrooms are inviting and engaging.
