     The Texas UIL enrollment numbers have been released for the 2024-2025 and the 2025-2026 school years.

     Edna has the largest number, coming in at 436, a hefty increase from the 373 number two years ago.

     Industrial came in with 343 students, a slight drop from the 367 they had in 2020.

     Ganado virtually stayed the same, moving from 213 to 214.

     The realignment classification numbers will come out in February 2024, but if you look at the 2020 classification numbers and apply the numbers today, Edna and Ganado would remain 3A DI and 2A DI respectively, but Industrial would drop to 3A DII.

     Right now, the classifications mean nothing until the UIL determines what the enrollment numbers will be for each classifications. The new classification numbers will go into effect when the new school year begins in August.

     Allen ISD has the largest enrollment number in Texas with 6,947 students while Plano East (5,346) and Plano West (5,338) have the second and third largest enrollment numbers.

     Valentine ISD has the smallest number in Texas, as well as the only single digit count, with six students.
