Superintendent: Echo may be largest 1A under new OSAA classifications
Summary
Superintendent reported enrollment trends, described how rolling averages affect admissions and said Echo could be the largest or second-largest 1A school under the new classification plan, with implications for league assignments in basketball and volleyball.
Superintendent reported a small net decline in enrollment ("2 kids down") but said the district uses three- and four-year rolling averages when deciding admission and placement at middle and high school levels. He explained the classification system changes and said the effect is mostly on basketball and volleyball league placement rather than football, which uses separate criteria.
On classification, the superintendent said, "Echo would be, I think, the largest or the 2nd largest 1 a school in the state under the new classification systems," a change that would shift which schools Echo faces in basketball and volleyball. The board discussed roster sizes and the impact of OSAA's rules on JV and varsity playing-time limits for 1A schools.
