Classification Notes for 2005-2009


Since all the classification information was faxed to schools in June, the following changes are being made today (8/16/2004):

  1. Grace Christian Academy of Knoxville will have football.
  2. Grace Baptist Academy of Chattanooga will have football.
  3. Temple High School will have football.


Note: Middle Tennessee Christian School will have varsity football beginning with the 2007-2008 school year. They will play junior varsity football in the first two years of the classification period.

The enrollment figures of Page High School, David Crockett High School, and Arlington High School will be appealed before the Board of Control at the August 23, 2004 meeting.

Also, the Board of Control will discuss the enrollment figures of Independence High School, Arlington High School, and Ensworth High School. The enrollment figures that were projected in the spring are different than the actual enrollment figures this fall. The discussion will be whether, for classification purposes, the spring projected enrollment figures or the enrollment figures this fall will be used.

Due to the appeals of enrollment figures for Page, David Crockett, and Arlington, the divisions for classification in Division I (A, AA, and AAA, and 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, and 5A) will be released on August 24, 2004 on the TSSAA website. On August 24 a fax will be sent to all schools with the option of moving up in Division I and withdrawing from the football playoffs. The deadline for returning this information to the TSSAA office is noon, Tuesday, September 7, 2004.

Note: Football playing schools designated by FB. Private or Independent schools are designated by * . The enrollment of all non-public schools in Division I have been multiplied by 1.8
