What is Selection/Classification?
The Selection/Classification program is a process for screening 7th and 8th grade students to determine their readiness to compete in high school level interscholastic athletics by evaluating their physical maturity, fitness, and skill. The NYSED guidelines for Selection/Classification can be found at this link.
