Talk:Juanita High School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Keep. Why not. Disk space is cheap.
- Delete. Encyclopedias don't usually have every single school in the world listed, right? ;) -- Tcwd 18:12, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- This one will. It might come in handy when doing research on the background of world leaders who went to high school... :-D 70.144.23.69 18:15, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- Is this "revolutionary Juanita Concept" notable? I'd suspect not, as the only Google hit on the term in quotes is from the website referenced by this article, but still, I'm not sure this shouldn't be VfD'd instead of speedied. Tonywalton 18:20, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- VfD - I don't think this article meets the speedy deleation criteria. Gorrister 18:39, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- The "Juanita Concept" referred to in this article is really just the school's word for "open-concept" school, quite revolutionary and fairly popular in the US in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Juanita was one of the few high-schools built from the "ground-up" as an open concept school, and its experiment, and ultimate failure as an open-concept in the 1980s is noteworthy. Google open-concept school and you should find quite a bit of information, including schools that continue to operate in this way. This article needs plenty of cleaning-up and fleshing-out, but seems to me to be worthwhile.
- Deleted two sentences about how students "love their school" and are "very spirited." That's just silly. --213.47.116.40 17:28, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- I am surprised to see no mention of the controversy concerning the school's mascot.

I set up a redirect to the Lake Washington School District on the temp article page to resolve the copyright issue. Juanita High is briefly covered on this school district page. — RJH 15:35, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
