This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: many links to placenames (in at least one case, to a place on a different continent) rather than to schools. NB sometimes articles to schools exist, but are missing from the DAB page. (November 2018) |

The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) is an organization that sponsors activities in thirty-three sports, comprising 374 public and private high schools in the U.S. state of Massachusetts.[1] The MIAA is a member of the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS), which writes the rules for most U.S. high school sports and activities. The MIAA was founded in 1978, and was preceded by both the Massachusetts Secondary School Principals Association (MSSPA) (1942–1978) and the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Council (MIAC) (1950–1978).
The MIAA is self-regulating with the 374 member schools providing individual leaders to serve within the 35 MIAA governance units.
