At a meeting of Grand River Conference superintendents on March 2, a split into two separate conferences beginning with the 2023-24 school year was approved by a 12-4 vote with Maysville, Polo, Putnam County, and South Harrison dissenting. The two new conferences will form along the divisional lines that had been established for 2023-24.

Albany, King City, North Andrew, North Harrison, Pattonsburg, Princeton, St. Joseph Christian, Stanberry, and Worth County will form one of the conferences.

The other conference will consist of Gallatin, Maysville, Milan, Polo, Putnam County, South Harrison, and Trenton (Brookfield and Marceline have been approved as new members and will be members beginning in 2024-25).

Names of the conferences will be announced at a later date.
