This change goes into effect immediately for this coming year's 2010-2011 season. How does it impact Immanuel? Not much. Immanuel will be in Division 5 which will quite similar to previous year's Division 4. Division 5 includes those schools with 200 students or fewer in enrollment. That's very close to where last year's Division 4 schools were in enrollment.
