Classes

Classification of secondary schools is performed by officially sanctioned bodies——to attempt to provide an equitable grouping of potential talent for athletic competition. Across North America, the classes have often been based on enrollment levels of the schools, with many leagues using classifications named A, AA, AAA, etc., with the number of As denoting schools with larger enrollment. But alternative schemes are also employed. Schools may be, placed in different classes for different sports (e.g., A for football. And AA for baseball).
