UIL Realignment: Here are the 2022-23 Class 5A Texas high school football districts

The University Interscholastic League revealed updated districts for the next two school years Thursday morning amidst its biannual reclassification and realignment.

Every two years, the UIL matches more than a thousand Texas high schools into districts based on enrollment and location, shifting some schools into new districts while moving others into different classifications.

Here are the conference cutoff numbers for each classification of the current 2022-24 UIL realignment cycle, as well as the number of schools in all classification levels:
