AA River Ridge District

AA River Ridge District

The AA River Ridge District is a district in Region IV of the Virginia High School League which was formed for the 2003-2004 school year out of the AA Blue Ridge District in Region III. In the 2002-2003 school year, the student body of Group AAA Cave Spring High School in Roanoke County was split into two Group AA sized schools with the opening of Hidden Valley High School. These two new schools gave the Blue Ridge District eleven members that year except in football, where Cave Spring remained in AAA and Hidden Valley played a partial schedule. It was necessary to separate the district for the 2003-2004 school year when both schools would join for football.

The assignment of schools to the two districts was not without controversy. The Roanoke County school board wanted all of its schools to be in the Blue Ridge. However, other schools objected because this alignment would have created a competitive imbalance in football with the prospective River Ridge District having several powerhouse teams and the Blue Ridge District having traditionally weaker teams. Eventually, a compromise sent the two southwest Roanoke County schools to the River Ridge and football power William Fleming High School of Roanoke, Virginia to the Blue Ridge.

In the 2007-2008 school year, the River Ridge District was placed into Region IV because many of the former Group AA member schools in the region lost enrollment and dropped into Group A.
