• Strong Keep. Needs cleanup, not deletion. Tons of newspaper articles available as sources: [1], [2]. Again, I would clean it up myself, but I don't have free access to the Tribune archives anymore. Zagalejo 19:22, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Schools-related deletions. —TerriersFan 01:56, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - this is a 91 year old school with plenty of history and many sources that demonstrate notability. In addition to those mentioned above many others can be found with a Google search. We don't delete for lack of sources we tag and improve. TerriersFan 02:07, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep Article needs to be rewritten, but the notable alumni added in a very brief search, and teh additional materials available, are all strong evidence that this article and this school satisfy the Wikipedia:Notability standard. Alansohn 03:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - if anyone has access to the New York Times select scheme it would be useful if they could check the first two articles here. If, as they seem, these are articles reporting student strikes over racial issues then that would be hugely notable. TerriersFan 04:28, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
  • I have access and have accessed the articles from the NYT site. I'm trying to work out how to send them to TerriersFan now. Noroton 18:09, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Many thanks - the article has now been expanded and notability is now clearly established. TerriersFan 17:08, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - a large high school now a major magnet school in Chicago. -- DS1953 ^talk 05:12, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per above. --Hdt83 ^Chat 05:17, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
• Keep The school has been the subject of multiple independent reliable-source reports, demonstrating notability. When we get the information up and footnote it to the NYT articles, that should settle it. Noroton 18:09, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
