The decision to close school is a serious one, and it affects many working families who would have to take a day off of work or find day care on short notice. Some families do not have these options and their children may be left home alone. Often, children are more at risk when we close school. Serving an expansive area with more than 240,000 residents and nearly 38,000 students in two counties, many families and businesses are impacted when Anoka-Hennepin closes its schools.
Where can I get information on school closings due to weather?
The district will share information about school closings in a variety of ways. In the list below, the first five communication vehicles are the quickest ways to be alerted:
- Phone, text or email message from AHlert system (for Anoka-Hennepin parents/guardians only).
- District and school websites.
- District and school social media pages (e.g. Facebook and Twitter).
- District and school e-newsletters (e.g. Backpack Online).
- Dial the district office at 763-506-1000 or any other Anoka-Hennepin phone number to hear a recording.
- Media outlets including WCCO, KSTP, Fox 9, Kare 11, CCX (also known as Northwest Community TV), WCCO radio and Star Tribune newspaper.
