HIGH SCHOOL DIVISIONS

Any California schools wishing to run in a division other than their 2008 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.
