School Spirit: In Ankeny, we get to cheer on two teams instead of just one! Ankeny is proudly represented by two outstanding teams, the Hawks and the Jaguars.
Inspiration: Currently, there are over 36 languages spoken within the Ankeny Community School District.
Excellence: Nearly 13,000 graduates have earned a diploma from either Ankeny High School or Ankeny Centennial High School.
Challenge: Our students go above and beyond. The 2019-2020 class earned 17,655 DMACC credits.
Leadership: Orbis, Ankeny’s unique college and career readiness activities organization, engages teams of students in partnership with the workforce in solving real problems and contributing to the betterment of our community.
Community: Our schools are committed to giving back to our community. All students in grades 8-12 participate in a community service day at the end of each school year.
Support: We help each other out. Existing PTO groups always support the beginning of a new PTO group.
Growth: Our school district has doubled in size within the last 15 years!
Volunteers: We work together, no matter where you live in town. In fact, we have one booster club that supports both high schools.
Consideration: We are a quickly growing city, but pride ourselves in our tight-knit community.
