The TSSAA Board of Control unanimously elected Grant Swallows of Warren County Schools as president and Bryan True from Loretto High School as vice president by acclamation at its March 4 meeting. The board also approved several classification and structural changes affecting multiple sports, most notably eliminating the success formula for Division II football classification and establishing a minimum of 12 teams in AAA with remaining schools divided by enrollment, a measure that passed 10-2.

In membership and cooperative actions, the board approved Lead Christian Academy's application for TSSAA membership beginning in 2026-27 and granted two schools permission to form cooperative agreements—Fayette Academy with Fayette-Ware High School in boys track and field, and St. Benedict at Auburndale with Lausanne Collegiate School in girls lacrosse. However, the board denied The Howard School's request to move to 3A classification in basketball, soccer and softball.

The board also approved on second reading a minor increase of officials' fees and voted to maintain the current one-year Average Daily Membership model for determining school classifications for 2027-2029. Nashville Christian School's request to switch wrestling regions was tabled pending input from all affected schools, while Division II AA softball programs were given flexibility to adjust their bracket structure due to low participation in the western region.
