Member schools were given the opportunity to appeal their school's placement at the Board of Control meeting on Thursday, November 17, 2016 if they felt they had a legitimate reason for being placed with a different group of schools. TSSAA will reevaluate every member school's enrollment after two years (Fall 2018). Schools that have a 20% decrease or increase from their Fall 2016 enrollment--and the change in enrollment would cause them to move to another class--will be moved to the appropriate class for the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school years.
