FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
AUSTIN— The biennial UIL reclassification and realignment for the 2008-09 and 2009-10 school years will be released Friday, February 1 at 9:00 a.m. CST. The new alignments, established by enrollment figures submitted to the UIL by its member schools in October, will serve as football and basketball districts for the next two school years.
The University Interscholastic League will host a question and answer session for interested media outlets regarding the release of the reclassification and realignment Friday, February 1 at 9:15 a.m. at the UIL building in Austin. All media present will be given complete reclassification and realignment packets. Media outlets interested in scheduling an interview with Dr. Charles Breithaupt for Friday should contact UIL Media Director Kim Rogers to set up a time.
Reclassification and realignment districts and information will be released through an electronic press release at 9 a.m. Friday to media on the UIL press release recipient list. The information will also be available online via the UIL web site at www.uil.utexas.edu, and at the 20 Regional Education Service Centers across the state. Additionally, complete reclassification and realignment packets will be available at the UIL office in Austin.
The reclassification and realignment will also be revealed on FSN Southwest at 9 a.m. Friday on a special episode of the High School Spotlight hosted by Craig Way.
