Myrtle claims to have 140 and says they will drop down to 1A

Probably if that’s their number. That could be the lower end of 2A though

Wasn’t the cutoff last time like 145 or somewhere like that? I don’t really remember

If that is the case someone on the coast could go to region 3 if Meridian happens to drop to 6a

Remember the 5, 6, 7, team regions are in play for 5A/6A/7A.

2025 numbers are 1A

[Rebel Bert]

I am not at home to look at my 2025 numbers after the 1.5 multis in place. But I believe it may be:

4A/3A cutoff 324 with Louisville dropping down

3A/2A cutoff is 214 with Clarkdale staying 2A forcing Noxubee, Louisville, or Yazoo County to come south, only 1 of those 3 come south.

2A/1A cutoff i believe is around 145.

I will confirm when I get home but based only on what MDE showed in 2025 numbers 4A-1A.

What if a north 6A team moves to 7A? 

[pancho]

then I assume a North 7A team would have to drop

Drop to region 3 or be a 7 team region. That would most likely Madison Central or Clinton  or even maybe Warren Central dropping to region 3.

Did you take numbers on every school??

[MSSportsGuy]

It's tough to judge the borderline schools because just a few students who opt out or in of a school can change them. I believe the numbers MDE puts on their site reflect the October figures from last year and aren't updated during that year. I could be wrong and if so, educate me please.

 

Just remember putting two schools who are maybe five students apart and close to one another geographically in different classes and divisions is done to increase excitement, just like making 7 classes. There is so much more excitement now than before it's impossible to contain (sarcasm). Wonder if the 1.5 multiplier will increase that excitement even more?

Your correct they were posted on MDE in  December 2025. As to the exact date and formula I do not know. Formula being was it a number posted on a specific date, rolling monthly average on or around October 1 each year.

Every school MDE had listed, even looking at middle schools that send kids that are currently 9th graders then 8th graders that feed specific high schools like in Jackson. Remember these are 2025 posted numbers subject to change. Private schools are posted on World news and report.

Who do you have at the bottom of 7A? The Jackson schools make my head spin trying to figure out what MS feeds what HS
