The HilanThe member schools of the IVC
The Inter-Valley Conference is an Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) athletic league made up of 14 schools from Carroll, Coshocton, Holmes, Stark, Guernsey and Tuscarawas counties. The conference underwent a major change at the start of the 2017-18 season as the league added five new member schools including Indian Valley, Claymont, Tuscarawas Valley, Buckeye Trail and Conotton Valley. The addition of Buckeye Trail in 2017 was (and still is) met with considerable outrage in the East Guernsey community. In the 2018 academic year, a super-majority (two-thirds plus) of students signed a petition calling upon the Administration to leave the IVC. However, as of this date, even after school officials promised to study the issue, nothing has been done.
