Orphaned, unlinked, non-notable. Delete. Neutralitytalk 21:28, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
- wikified, keep - Dude, this is very tiresome for many of us. I find this the equivalent of a tantrum. Please stop and talk. If you still don't win - well that's how the community decides. You can't just hammer through your way. Lotsofissues 22:39, 17 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This school is ranked #828 on Newsweek's list of the Best High Schools in America. -- BD2412 talk 23:11, 2005 May 17 (UTC)
- Delete. Non-notable even if there are only 827 better high schools in the U.S. It is cool that they built a radio telescope. Quale 00:17, 18 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as with others. Christopher Parham 00:29, 2005 May 18 (UTC)
- Keep. I remember Kettering Grammar School tracking space flights in the 1960s, but even they didn't get around to building their own radio telescope. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 00:54, 18 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, no real info (lists of sports played? please) and rather hard to differentiate from innumerable identical schools. Master Thief Garrett 03:12, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and continue to expand. Verifiable. Secondary schools are inherently notable. --BaronLarf 03:13, May 19, 2005 (UTC)

- Your account is 3 days old, that's notable. —RaD Man (talk) 03:07, 20 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Useless collection of generic facts about an insignificant school. This is not an encyclopedia article. Individual schools are not inherently encyclopedic and there is nothing to distinguish insignificant schools like this one from thousands of nearly identical schools around the world. WP:NOT states "Wikipedia is not a general knowledge base, that is, it is not an indiscriminate collection of items of information. That something is 100% true does not mean it is suitable for inclusion in an encyclopedia." Gamaliel 01:41, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
