Virginia High School and Lebanon High School joined from the dissolved A Clinch Mountain District. At the beginning of the 2017-18 school year, Graham High School (Bluefield, Virginia) will join the district after 5 years with the A Mountain Empire District.

Abingdon is a member of the new Group 3A while the other schools are members of the new Group 2A. Schools are also assigned to a conference of schools of the same group for the first round of post-season competition.
