In Missouri, schools have to use certified/registered (Same thing here) officials for every contest from JH to Varsity. You take the Part 1 test when you first register for a sport, then the Part 2 every year you re-register. Passing the Part 2 along with a rules meeting re-certifies you every year. Schools can be penalized for not using state-certified officials for their games. Private schools who are a part of the state governing body (Almost all of them) have to use state-certified officials like everyone else.
