Our Accreditation
Our History
St. Anne's School is a fully accredited school with the Minnesota Nonpublic School Accrediting Association. Accreditation was first received from MNSAA in 1987. The seven-year accreditation eligibility status was renewed in June 2022 upon successful completion of a self-study and onsite visit by the MNSAA review team. Our school annually demonstrates school improvement and complies with the policies and standards of MNSAA. We work hard to maintain and are proud of our accreditation status.
St. Anne's School first opened its doors to 93 students in 1923 by nuns of Good Council Academy. Six years later, a new school was built in its current location. In the years to follow, St. Anne's has undergone renovations, additions, and the opening of both junior and high schools. Today, 108 students are enrolled in preschool through 6th grade.
