2B Schools: 63 + 3 non-counting** schools = 66 schools
1B Schools: 55 + 12 non-counting** schools = 67 schools

**Note: Non-counting schools are the 22 member schools that were not included in the percentages because they do not access post-season play, they have no athletics, they do not meet the WIAA separate alternative high school definition or they do not field at least one team sport outside of a combibned program.

The WIAA staff thanks all the member schools for their timely reporting of information that made the classification process go very smoothly this year.
