What is the difference in the state champions for the 'A' classes (5a, 4a, etc) and the Division state champions?
I see that a school can be 5a, but win a Division 1 state championship?
Is this determined preseason? Is this like Texas 6A-Division 1 and Division 2? Is it enrollment based? Is this a private/public school distinction? I'm just curious why they have what seems to be two different categories of champions.

Division 2 is 3A and 4A
Division 3 is 2A
Division 4 is 1A
Division 2 is 3A and 4A

It's a Public/Private split. It isn't an enrollment split like Texas. All private schools & open enrollment public schools are separated from the public schools once the playoffs start.
The open enrollment public schools are magnet schools or any public school that can pull students from a wider area than a standard school district.
It's intended to address complaints from some public schools about unfair advantages and recruiting from private & magnet schools, but it's a complete cluster.

Open enrollment schools aren't separated from the public schools.
Landry-Walker won the 5A state title and Edna Karr won the 4A state title, on the public side. St. Thomas More won Division II title and Evangel won Div. 1 on the Select side.

Plus Warren Easton and McDonogh 35 were in the semis. Neville was 4A runner up and they're the only passing school in Monroe City Schools so they have kids from all over Monroe.

Why did Scotlandville play Evangel?

Why was Byrd Select/Non Select/Select?
Some bullshite percentage of total students that live in the zone vs out. If you have 1800 students, you could bring in the entire team and still be "Non Select"
Just put everyone back together and open up the zones.

Karr and Landry Walker's districts are all of Orleans Parish, like other schools who have a whole parish for a district

I'll put it this way...imagine Hillary Clinton's campaign committee organizing a football association. That should give you a pretty good idea.

Ghost pretty much nailed it.
They call it "select/non-select" which means schools with "select" admissions policies (there are private schools, or public schools that can "select" who enrolls there.)
Non-select schools are the "traditional" public schools that have to accept everyone who enrolls.
It's basically a public/private split for the playoffs only.

That topic shall be investigated after a final concrete decision is made on how the universe came about, what definitively killed the dinosaurs, and how the female mind works.
Must take care of the easier topics first.

I haven't seen any non-Catholic reports, but Mr. Brocato reported in this weeks Clarion Herald that there was a recent Executive Board meeting, open to the public.
Mr. Bonine went in and asked for a "vote of confidence" or a release. They then kicked out all the reporters, even going so far as to deliver one guy his laptop after he left it in the room! Result? Eddie Bonine may just get an extension to 2020.
The bid process for the various championships happened, every bidder was given a ten minute, to-the-second window to present.
Robin Fambrough's article is kind of sketchy on details. From June 3rd.

Jimmy Derry's piece, a little more detail.
