[edit] Statistics

I've been thinking of adding some stastics relating to the ethnicities of students at this school. The information comes from this .pdf file from the district website, page 41/41, http://www.ccps.k12.fl.us/Departments/LTT/techplan/Tech_Plan_2007-2010.pdf. I'm putting this here to gauge what everyone else thinks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.56.200.119 (talk) 00:43, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

I do not see how that information is really necessary, but you can check around the FA, A and GA-class articles here to see if any actually integrated that information into the article.

[edit] POV

The "Extracurricular Activities" section seems to violate WP:NPOV, WP:V, and perhaps even WP:NOR because it contains uncited information, including details about awards the school has obtained. It also uses words like "superior" and sentences like "SGA (Student Government Association) is very active in the school as well as on a district and state level."

• Please find references by January 20th to avoid the removal of the "Extracurricular Activities" section. This is not a threat, just a friendly notice. GO-PCHS-NJROTC (talk) 20:06, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Punta Gorda High School

I've never heard it be called "Punta Gorda High School", nor could I find any references supporting it. I say the information should be removed, it seems to be false. GO-PCHS-NJROTC (talk) 20:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Copy and paste

It appears the following information is a direct copy and paste from its source with a few minor changes:

"Punta Gorda Grammar and High School opened its doors in 1907 with an enrollment of 150 students. Construction of a new school on Taylor Street began in 1911 due to overcrowding issues. However, by 1926 after the construction of the first bridge to cross Charlotte Harbor, bussing increased Punta Gorda's enrollment to 1,000 which in turn lead to the construction of Charlotte High School."

[edit] NPOV

I am so sick of people trying to make this article an advestisement. I wish people would stop running their anti and pro Charlotte High School campaigns on Wikipedia. This is not the place for knocking or promoting the school. GO-PCHS-NJROTC (talk) 23:04, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
