I appreciate your work. With this math Cardinal Ritter and St. Marys would be class 4 based on numbers of 315/310. Im sure Class 5 would love to see that.
 
I’m sure St.Mary’s numbers will rebound as they drop due to uncertainty with the school.

Both St. Mary’s and Ritter were class 3 before the success factor was applied. Once the private schools affected by the factor are moved, it changes the numbers as schools slide up and down to balance the classes. For example along with St. Mary’s and Ritter; Ava, Centralia, Forsyth, Pembroke Hill, St. Michael were all class 3 before the success factor was applied

:confused:
 
Webb went up quite a bit. It looks like they are 10-25 kids from going up to the top class in a lot of sports other than football
 
If McDonald County goes to class 5 will the Big 8 allow them to stay? They should really join the OMC
 
OTOH Branson is growing a lot. They should have stayed in the COC. CJ made the correct move as it looks like even schools like Willard are growing quickly. No other school in the old COC has an enrollment below 1050 here and CJ is at 754.

Reasons like this is why I’m starting to prefer the Texas district system. Football is ruining conferences for other sports which enrollment isn’t near as important as football.
 
What's worse, being in a classification that guarantees you in a Webb City district or being in a classification that guarantees you will never win another state championship?
I would say class 5 is still better. Webb isn't unbeatable anymore for a good Carthage team. Class 6 might mean a district with a really good KC team.

Branson is NOT growing alot.... Enrollment has been pretty steady

Not to worry. 3 largest classes in history are at 8th 9th and 10th. Then it falls off a cliff. Webb will rise another year but will then be bottom of class 5 in pop.
 
So they are just going to keep loading schools into class 2-5?

They already announced that going forward there will be a cap on Class 1.
I don’t remember exactly but I believe they said Class 1 will fluctuate between 32-38 schools depending on the year.
Someone on here I’m sure knows the specifics.
I believe it was 42.
