In-district transfer

Families that live within the district boundaries have choices in Anoka-Hennepin Schools.

An in-district transfer is for a student who resides in the Anoka-Hennepin School District and wants to transfer to a different Anoka-Hennepin school from their regularly assigned school. For example, if a Blaine High School student wants to attend Coon Rapids High School, the parent or guardian must request an in-district transfer. 

  • Families that complete for an in-district transfer application by the January 15 deadline for the first round priority lottery will receive confirmation of enrollment by February 15 for the next school year.  
     
  • If your student does not receive confirmation of enrollment in the first round of the lottery, two additional lottery processes will be held in mid-April and mid-June for the next school year. 
     
  • The application form is only available during the three lottery rounds. The in-district transfer process is closed after the third and final lottery round and additional applications will not be accepted.
