[edit] Ponce de Leon Middle School

Ponce de Leon Middle School (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

non notable middle school. middle schools do not generally have inherent notability, and this one only has light assertions of notability (otherwise it would be speedied). Also completely unsourced ⇒ SWATJester ^{Denny Crane.} 01:30, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

• Comment I see that virtually all Miami-Dade County schools below secondary level are submitted for Afd, I would suggest to merge all these into a single article for the school district. --JForget 01:49, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per my view of school notability. Eusebeus 10:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
• Comment From the article: "It was originally a high school and later became a middle school." Perfect for a school named after Ponce de Leon, I think, and further investigation might establish notability. Coming in 2009: Ponce de Leon Elementary. Mandsford 22:49, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Further proof of notability, seems to me... Noroton 22:51, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Merge into *school district. List of middle schools in Miami-Dade County a new article for elementary schools in Coral Gables, Florida. See my Update/Comment below No, you can't merge into the school district. A look at the school district article reveals a list of 195 elementary schools in the school district and they can't all have descriptions in the article. Possibly new articles could be created for the district's schools in certain areas (this one's in Coral Gables, Fla., for instance, and that only has a population of about 40,000 people, so it can't have too many elementary schools). An alternative would be to merge these elementary schools into an article -- essentially a list -- of all Miami-Dade School District elementary schools and later calve it off into regional articles as more information is added (I think there are about 20 articles for elementary schools in the district now). In fact, unless I get some strong objections to it, I'll do it myself. Noroton 22:52, 8 August 2007 (UTC) (amended Noroton 23:01, 8 August 2007 (UTC))
