These are the enrollment numbers used to classify GHSA private schools in 2020. Nine of the GHSA’s largest private schools (marked with an asterisk) are proposing a reclassification that would shift Greater Atlanta Christian of Class 3A and Lovett and Pace Academy of 2A into Class A Private beginning in 2022-23. The proposal also would pull Riverside Military, currently in Class 2A, down into A Private. Schools marked with a “#” do not have football teams.
