WELCOME TO THE 2026-27 SCHOOL YEAR!
Dear Annehurst All-Stars Families and Students,
Welcome back to another amazing school year at Annehurst Elementary! This year we welcome the “Class of 2039” to Kindergarten! While our 5th graders, “Class of 2034,” will take over as our building leaders and set the tone for what it means to “Shine Bright” with the All-Star 5! We are honored to be entrusted with educating your children and we will do everything in our power to give them the best educational experience possible. Part of what makes a school great is the engagement of our families and community. Below is information on various back-to-school events for students and families as we get ready for the new school year!
