Spring Sports Parent Meeting

Holly Anderson, Activities Director at Northview Middle School, has been chosen as the 2022 Middle School Athletic Director of the Year by the Iowa High School Athletic Directors Association. Holly was chosen for her outstanding dedication and leadership of young student-athletes.

“We are excited that Holly is receiving this much deserved recognition,” said Dr. Erick Pruitt, Superintendent of Ankeny Schools. “She is great leader, to both her students and also to her fellow staff members.”

Holly has been with the Ankeny Community School District for 16 years. Her previous roles for the district include P.E. teacher and girl’s basketball coach before beginning her current role in administration in 2013.

Honorees chosen as Athletic Director of the Year must have a minimum of five years’ experience and show qualities of achievement, excellence and character. Holly will be recognized at the annual IHSADA State Convention in March.

Key Club recently participated in a Reggie’s Sleep out event, a night to raise awareness and money for the homeless and at-risk youth in Iowa. Due to COVID-19 Drake University has no longer been able to host the event in their stadium but Key Club was able to spend the evening at Ankeny High School learning more about the homelessness in Iowa, picking up trash around the school, and we also made 84 care packages for the Ankeny Service Center. As a club we were able to raise $525, all of which will be donated to Reggie’s Sleep out to help those in need in our community.
