Suburban Conference (St. Louis)

The Suburban Conference is a Missouri State High School Activities Association recognized high school extracurricular league which includes 30 schools located in the suburbs of St. Louis. The conference comprises mostly schools in St. Louis County but also a handful from Jefferson County. Because of the large number of teams in suburban St. Louis, the conference is split up geographically into four divisions; each division effectively operates as its own conference.

*The class in which a school competes depends on the size of the school, and the particular sport or activity. Most activities (for example, baseball, softball, track, cross country) compete in four classes, but basketball competes in five and football in six. Because basketball is by far the most popular sport in the state in regards to school participation, MSHSAA officially uses the five-class system to classify schools.[1]

**Fox competes in the Mississippi Area Football Conference in football.
