NOTE: Lake Forest Academy is a member of the Private School League and plays a complete round-robin with the other six conference schools. However, LFA is only an associate member of the IHSA and is not eligible for the football playoffs. For this reason, IHSA does not include Lake Forest Academy in the Private School League standings, which will determine the league's automatic qualifier.
