Enrollment is down at Anoka-Hennepin Schools. According to the district’s Oct. 1 report, kindergarten through 12th grade saw a decrease of 367 students from last year compared to their projected decrease of only seven students.

The decision also means there is a good chance — weather permitting — the playgrounds will be open before the end of 2026.
