Schools Challenge VHSL Realignment | Richmond News

Eight high schools are fighting to reshape their competitive future by appealing the VHSL’s proposed realignment for 2027-2031, with most seeking downgrades to lower classes — Alleghany wants Class 2, Grayson County aims for Class 1. Appeals must be heard by an independent five-person committee by August 25, with decisions due within 30 days. The final say rests with the Executive Committee on September 23 — no new hearings allowed — making this a make-or-break window for schools hoping to alter their playoff paths and regional matchups.
