Official 2015 135-ADM for 2016 realignment

Post by SF Band dad »

To: Member Schools Superintendents, Principals and Athletics Directors
From: Jerome Singleton, Commissioner – SC High School League
Subject: 135 ADM Ranking of Schools
Date: May 14, 2015

Please find below the ranking of schools.

The schools ranking assignments are the results of the 135 ADM as supplied by the State Department of Education, verified by the schools, and adjustments to the 135 ADM based on extenuating circumstances (i.e. school district consolidations, redrawing of district attendance lines, opening of new schools, etc.).

The League office will now accept 2016-2018 realignment proposals from the member schools. There shall be five classifications. The goal is to reduce the disparity within each classification’s enrollment while being sensitive to geographic concerns.

As you prepare your proposals, here are a few guidelines (no order of importance intended).

1. If at all possible, schools are to be assigned by numerical order. In an effort to address geographic/travel concerns, a team(s) may be moved up or down in a classification provided its enrollment is within 50 students of the top or bottom of the new classification it is to be assigned.

2. There is no minimum or maximum number of schools to be placed in a classification. Each classification may have a different number of schools.

3. There is no minimum or maximum number of regions to be placed in each classification. Each classification may have a different number of regions.

4. There is no minimum or maximum number of schools to be placed in each region. Be mindful of contest limitations and the ability to schedule non-region contests.

5. Give strong consideration to dividing the schools in a given classification into regions as evenly as possible while being mindful of the geographic issues that may impact this consideration. Travel issues may negatively impact the ability to honor this consideration.

6. Consider multiple schools in same district.

7. Consider rivalries.

8. Consider the effects one classification may have on another classification (i.e. scheduling, open dates, etc.).

Please submit your proposals in writing no later than June 1, 2015. Any proposals submitted after the deadline date may not be considered. The League staff will review all proposals during July and develop realignment. In August, the realignment of schools will be presented to the member schools.

Please know that the League office staff appreciates your efforts and looks forward to hearing from you.

First observation: Carolina Forest is hosed. Conway, Socastee and St. James are just below the cut. If we expand the list to 48 teams it will bring North Augusta up and they'll be in the same boat.

I think the 5A cutoff will be anywhere from 42 to 48. I don't think it will hit 50.

I'm thinking it will be 32 to 40.

I'm playing around with the following scenario:
5A - 32 teams - School sizes: 4065 to 1715
4A - 48 teams - School sizes: 1119 to 1969
3A - 48 teams - School sizes: 710 to 1106
2A - 40 teams - School sizes: 408 to 698
1A - 45 teams - School sizes: 370 and below (about 7 of them don't play football)

That sounds good. I was thinking of a way to keep CF from going to Charleston for region games.

I've been playing around with the maps, adjusting the size of the classes and regions.... I can't find any solution that doesn't suck. :(

Horry county has screwed themselves with CF's attendance zones. They should have tried to keep CF closer to Socastee, Conway and St. James. As the 7th largest school in the state, they're not even close to the bubble to play down in 4A.
