Smiles and chatter filled the halls as students began the 2022-23 school year
(09/09/2022) There was energy and excitement in the air as students returned to Anoka-Hennepin’s 40-plus sites on the first day of school Tuesday, Sept. 6.
Around 37,000 students brought laughter and smiles to schools around the district on the first day and students were met with enthusiasm and excitement from teachers and staff ready for another great year in Anoka-Hennepin. District information services reported that student enrollment is in line with projections for the 2022-23 school year. The official enrollment report will be available in October.
New this year, freshmen and new-to-district students at Anoka-Hennepin’s five traditional high schools participated in a series of activities aimed at easing the transition to high school and building a foundation for academic success.
This new practice brought the first day excitement back on Wednesday, Sept. 7 as sophomores, juniors and seniors arrived for their first day of school and all-school assemblies kicked-off the school year with a lot of energy.
