• Keep Clear bad faith mass nomination. It is inappropriate to mass-nominate articles for deletion on the specious criteria that "elementary schools are inherently non-notable". If this sort of mass-nomination is allowed, it will set a very bad precedent for the AfD process in general.--Nicodemus75 15:31, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Piffle. Considering how many that still think this is irreverent schoolcruft, I'd say it's no more bad faith than mass-creation of school articles. / Peter ^Isotalo 04:33, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep, schools are notable, bad faith mass nomination - Wikipedia is not paper. Who gave Dismas his janitorial barnstar??? Unwarranted time wasting effort to remove all elementary and middle schools from Wikipedia. KillerChihuahua 23:20, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

• keep please no one is holding a gun forcing anyone to do anything so why are we talking about guns when a school article is at stake Yuckfoo 01:35, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
  • At stake? Yuckfoo, do you even bother to read these articles before you request they be kept? This article is utterly devoid of any useful information much beyond what you could find in a phone book. It's a pathetic article no matter how you look at it. It will likely never be expanded to more than it is now. If you are going to vote to keep it, I hope you also intend to see that it is expanded to become an article worthy of taking up space here. Otherwise, please reconsider your vote. Denni☯ 00:35, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete junk.  Grue  20:36, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Perfectly good stub. --Tony Sidaway^Talk 01:00, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
  • I seem to recall you claiming that all stubs are good. Hell, even better than real articles. / Peter ^Isotalo 04:31, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Your memory is faulty. I have stated semi-seriously that I prefer a good stub, even of a sentence in length, that gives useful information, to an article padded to featured article length. I do value brevity in an encyclopedia. This article is a good example because in a few short sentences it describes the school in terms of its name, school system, location enrollment, and where to find more information. Excellent. --Tony Sidaway^Talk 16:33, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable school. / Peter ^Isotalo 04:31, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep this stub. I see no good reason for deletion. --Andylkl ^(talk) 15:47, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per Wikipedia:Schools/Arguments#Keep. Well written, formatted and referenced stub. We should be encouraging this type of participation. Unfocused 21:38, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
