• Delete, not notable, school cruft. Megan1967 06:16, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
• 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.

• Delete. Wow, a school that has students, and the teachers aren't so happy. No wonder this article needs to exist, this school is so different from every other school in the world. Jayjg ^(talk) 19:26, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, it's both verifiable and written in an NPOV way. Notability isn't a deletion criterion. James F. (talk) 12:54, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, vanity. Radiant_* 13:46, May 17, 2005 (UTC)

• Keep. Notability is still not a deletion criterion. Needs title that includes location. - David Gerard 22:27, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Wikipedia would not be improved by the deletion of this article. ~leif ☺ _(talk) 01:00, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Lets keep this in perspective: surely this school is as important as any article you could dig up in category:Dams? Why are schools getting mass VfD's when they are every bit as notable as, say for example, John Day Dam? I mean, really, folks, think about it a bit. linas 00:00, 19 May 2005 (UTC)
