Mshsaa Standards for Private or Public schools

[WGTigerdad67]

What are the standards that deems whether a school is public or private in Mshsaa? Also what determines if schools use the multiplier or not?

I would guess they are private if there is a price to go there. It would not be a free education school. Minus the sponsors and scholarships though! LOL

Ok with that being said when is the multiplier used on those private schools? Should there be any private schools in class 1 sports??

A public school is going to be those that have a designated geographic "territory" (school district), financed in part by taxes paid by property owners within that district and students that live within that district are entitled to attend that school. They are essentially financed and run by the community (and the state).

Private schools do not have a district, property tax revenue, etc... they are financed by tuition, private donations, fundraisers, etc. Generally a student can attend there regardless of their residency, provided they pay the tuition (or receive some type of scholarship - which would be how some private schools recruit).

Maybe to simplify, a private school is essentially a business, and a public school is a government entity.

Supposed to live within a 25 miles radius of the school to play sports.
