• Keep. Perfectly good stub. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 03:30, 17 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.

• Keep, verifiable - SimonP 04:00, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable. All the article does is make a weak case that the school has notably poor academics, but so do thousands of other schools around the world and they aren't encyclopedic either. Quale 04:02, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
