If we want to change our enrollment for next trimester and take more classes online or go back to the high school, what do we need to do?
The best way is to contact the school counselor. You can contact your students’ home high school counselor or contact our counselors: Ms. Melanie Hankins - melanie.hankins@ahschools.us, 763-433-4036; Ms. Alyssa Zemple - alyssa.zemple@ahschools.us, 763-433-4031.
-
We are interested in enrolling. How do we enroll?
The easiest way is to fill out the enrollment form on our website. From there, we will connect with you and your home high school counselor regarding the availability of our courses, timelines, graduation requirements, etc. For high school students from outside of Anoka-Hennepin, the following forms also need to be filled out: Statewide open enrollment form | Student Registration form.
-
We are enrolled at AHVA, but my student wants to attend the traditional high school graduation ceremony or other activities like prom. Is that possible?
YES! We keep enrollment active at the home high school so you do not lose that connection. It is critical that you continue to follow their school announcements for timelines that are important for whatever the activity.
Graduation/Transcript Requests
-
My student is a senior this year. Where does he/she graduate from high school and how do I access transcripts?
- All students in our district graduate from Anoka-Hennepin School District.
- Transcripts are dependent on the senior’s third trimester enrollment status:
- Full-Time Online Students: If you are online full-time during the 3rd tri of your senior year, you will request transcripts from the district office by submitting an Authorization for Release of school records and returning it to Tudy Felix. Tudy.Felix@ahschools.us
- Part-Time Online Students: If you are part-time online 3rd tri of your senior year, you will request transcripts from your home high school
- Other: If you are online 1st and 2nd trimester but attend the high school 3rd trimester, they will have your transcripts
