MHSAA to implement enrollment multiplier for private schools in 2027-28
Summary

The MHSAA has announced a 1.5 enrollment multiplier for private schools starting in the 2027-28 sports season. This decision, passed by the MHSAA board on June 2, aims to address concerns about competitive balance in high school sports. The multiplier will apply to all private schools in grades 9-11 in the association. Public schools have previously questioned why Mississippi did not have such a policy, which is standard in many other states. The change will not impact the upcoming 2026-27 season, allowing existing private schools time to adjust before the reclassification begins.
