HIGH SCHOOL DIVISIONS
California Schools
California schools should enter into their proper division based on their section's current year designation. Any California schools wishing to run in a division other than their current year designated division must e-mail a request to the seeding committee (torourke@emuhsd.k12.ca.us) stating its rationale for the change.
Schools Outside California
Your divisional placement must be determined by your enrollment for all four grade levels based on California's divisional standards (the standards are listed below).
- If you have only one sex, double your enrollment to determine your proper division.
- If you do not have freshmen, double your sophomore enrollment to determine your proper division.
