I worked 4 years of predominantly JV/Freshman games before moving to a Varsity schedule. JH/MS may help some with the rules, but you may end up with partners who have no interest in moving up, so that can have a negative effect on your progress. You do not make the decision to move up to varsity, assignors do. Part of their decision making is based on feedback from known varsity officials who have seen you work. And most of that feedback will be based on varsity guys seeing you work JV games.
