    • No, but it appears that they aim for "like vs. like".  And that looks different in different states, depending on demographics, school/transfer policies, etc.  So I applaud those involved with the SSAA for providing a competitive opportunity for like-minded schools.  
    • The SSAA doesn't exactly separate public from private.  
    • The SSAA Atlantic division has grown from 20 for 2025 to 52 and counting for 2026.  With the exception of Okeechobee who would otherwise be 4A, most the schools in it are either rural, 1A or 2A and only a few 3A.  The Atlantic division is for schools 800+ in size.  I'm curious to know if there's enough interest from the large school independents and the SSAA to create a large school division?  Let's say 1600 and up.
    • Interesting development… Alabama restructures football classifications: "The Alabama High School Athletic Association’s Central Board of Control voted by a 13-2 margin to adopt a new model that establishes 6 classifications for public schools and 2 classifications for private schools.  Under the new format, public and private schools will compete in separate classifications for regular season play and separate brackets for postseason championships, while still being allowed to play one another during the regular season." Alabama joins Tennessee and Georgia in separating public and private schools in postseason play.  Not saying this is the answer in Florida, but it shows a willingness of some states to address the competitive equity issue in their states.  If the FHSAA continues its head-buried-in-the-sand approach to this issue, more schools will surely be seeking different opportunities outside the FHSAA.
    • Since the bureaucracy that is FHSAA is to inept to fix it, seeking an alternative is the best for us.
