-
Arlington Bowie High School
-
Arlington High School
-
Arlington Lamar High School
-

The new district will apply to football, volleyball and basketball. Alignments for all other events will be released on the UIL website in the spring of 2026.
“This realignment officially moves Granbury into the 6A classification, and we’re excited about the opportunity,” said Granbury ISD Athletic Director Lamont Moore. “We know we’ll be facing some quality programs and outstanding schools, and that’s exactly what helps elevate our student-athletes and our athletic department. These are great locations for our parents and fans to travel, show up, and support our teams, and we look forward to competing across the board in District 3-6A.”
UIL realignment occurs every two years and is based on enrollment data provided by school districts across the state. The new district assignments aim to create competitive balance while considering geography and travel for schools.
Granbury ISD will begin preparations for the transition to 6A competition over the next two school years, with district play officially beginning in the fall of 2026.
