Here’s how the private schools did in 2022:
34 of 307 schools competing in districts (11.1%)

Overall (Classes 1 - 6)
Round of 16: 13 of 96 (13.5%)
Round of 8: 8 of 48 (16.7%)
Round of 4: 6 of 24 (25%)
Champ Games: 4 of 12 (33%)

Overall, not as bad as it may seem. We usually focus on the 3 potential state champs as opposed to the 13 of final 96. Just interesting data. I think I’ll go back and do the last 10 years. Hypothesis: similar numbers each year. Not a large percentage until we get to the semis and championship games, that’s when it becomes a bit disproportionate.

For the record, I am NOT for splitting public and private. I AM for MSHSAA actually doing their job and enforce blatant recruiting / undue influence and transferring without moving. They could clean up STL and it would get a lot better, but they won’t touch it. They aren’t going to risk a PR disaster and I’ll leave it at that.
 
What you are looking at here is every year since 6 Classes started in 2002. Each column represents Class 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and each row is the round: 16, 8, 4, 2. Classes 5 and 6 didn't have data on round of 16 for 2002 - 2007.

21 years of data:
Private Schools in Final 16: 243 of 1824 (13%)
Private Schools in Final 8: 148 of 1008 (15%)
Private Schools in Final 4: 89 of 504 (18%)
Private Schools in Championship Games: 54 of 252 (21%)

Last 6 seasons (not including this one)

Blair Oaks, Lamar and Webb City have 3 less state titles that all private schools combined

Last time one of the schools didn't win state? 2009

Last time a private school didn't win state? 2012

All joking aside no school actively recruits. They are not scouting youth sporting events.

The kicker is everyone wants to be on a winner. They want to go to a school to get to the next level. While private schools have borderless boundaries, there are other limitations like cost, transportation, grades and behavior. Private schools like CBC aren't going to give up there academic reputation because someone is really good with a ball in their hand. Lets be honest we all know of that "star" athlete at our school that had an F on Wednesday and a C or B on Friday. You think MICDS or Rockhurst is letting a kid with Fs and Ds in middle school in? Nope but he can go to a public school and be eligible for at least one semester. You think ever kid you watch playing actively lives inside your school districts boundaries? I promise you there is a few "living" with grandma. But I can tell you no coach went to his house to meet with his parents to figure out how to get him into school there.

No school actively recruits...lol. No coach probably, but what I like to call FOPS (Friends of the Program) most certainly do.

And for the sake of arguing, yes it happens in Public Schools as well

I don’t disagree but wasn’t going the route today. As someone within the Linn Community said when they decided to start up football, they wanted to keep their best athletes from leaving the district.

They already had several boys playing in a feeder program for a nearby district. But when they begin to start their own program they didn’t quite have enough kids for their own team and where going to continue playing in said neighboring program. However, the kids were suddenly no longer welcome in said neighboring program. Owensville’s feeder team stepped up to the plate and gave those kids a home that season though and now has a full program and I think even had a team make the four rivers youth league playoffs.

All in all the school or Coach doesn’t actively recruit.

Bottom line is this... You win and kids will come. PERIOD. STAMP IT. They do not have to recruit because parents want their kids in a winning program and with less problems in the school system. Schools that win, have fewer discipline problems as well.

Winning cures a lot of things. Your assessment is accurate to a degree. Nowadays many parents don't care about the winning as much as they do about the playing time. But there are people within the inner circles who are working local kids even at youth levels, to push towards a specific school.
