Enrollments and classifications for the 2012-13 school term have been posted. There are two important changes this year.
1. In the four-class sports, 25% of the teams in last year's state series were put into each class. This differs from last year's policy, in which 27.78% were placed in Class 1A and 2A, and 22.22% were placed in Class 3A and 4A.
2. In four pairs of boys and girls sports that take place in the same sport season, the enrollment cutoffs, which were similar, were made identical. In most cases this policy changed the cutoff by only a few students and often moved only one or two schools to a lower class in one of the sports. The pairs of sports involved were boys/girls cross country, boys/girls basketball, boys/girls track and field, and boys baseball/girls softball.
Here are the classification ranges approved by the Board for the 2012-13 school term:
