The Valley 8 Conference was formed in 1999 by eight medium-sized high schools in the Fox River Valley region in Wisconsin: Clintonville, Fox Valley Lutheran, Freedom, Hortonville, Little Chute, Oconto Falls, Waupaca and Xavier.[1] Three of the six public school members (Hortonville, Little Chute and Waupaca) were formerly in the East Central Conference, and one each came from the Bay (Clintonville), Olympian (Freedom) and Packerland (Oconto Falls) Conferences. The two private schools (Fox Valley Lutheran and Xavier of Appleton) were both previously in the Fox Valley Christian Conference, and were in the process of joining the WIAA as part of its merger with the Wisconsin Independent Schools Athletic Association.[2] Membership remained stable for the entirety of the conference's history, which ended in 2007 when the Valley 8 was disbanded. Six schools (Clintonville, Fox Valley Lutheran, Freedom, Little Chute, Waupaca and Xavier) became charter members of the Eastern Valley Conference,[3] and the two other members (Hortonville and Oconto Falls) joined the Bay Conference.[4]
