IAHSAA District Reclassification

THE IAHSAA announced on March 20th that, “Following Monday’s Zoom meeting of the IHSAA Board of Control, district and group assignments for the 2023 and 2024 football seasons are now available.

Districts and Class 5A groups are effective for a two-year cycle. The 2023 football season will be the first with a socioeconomic factor added for classifications. Approved this winter by the State Board of Education, the classification adjustment will reduce 40 percent of a school’s free or reduced lunch (FRL) count from their annual enrollment to determine their final classification number.”
