DISTRICT III FOOTBALL

ENROLLMENTS & CLASSIFICATIONS

The PIAA realigns classifications every two years. Classifications for the 2022-23 and 2023-24 school years are based on
school enrollments of students in grades 9-11 during the 2021-22 school year. Schools must count their students in the
school, plus 10% of any students in cyber/charter schools who live in a public school district.
