Who are the Largest and Smallest 5A Programs in Texas?

From Beaumont West Brook to El Paso Burges here are the largest and smallest programs that will be competing in Class 5A Texas high school football in 2026-28.

Smithson Valley (2118 enrollment) is pretty much in the middle of 5A Division I but missed the top-five cut. The Rangers will be looking for their third consecutive state title under legendary head coach Larry Hill. 

There were some big changes in 5A Division II: state finalist Richmond Randle has moved up to 5A DI, but the reigning state champ is South Oak Cliff (1601 enrollment), and they are back looking to add a fourth state title ring to head coach Jason Todd's collection.
