[edit] PEAK is unencyclopedic and written like an ad

The recent PEAK-related additions to the history section are written like and ad and, unless and until they withstand the test of time, are not encyclopedic. They are more fitting for an almanac, a press release, a news digest, or a web page devoted to FWISD or to PEAK. I assume that over the past few decades FWISD, like all other school districts of its size and age, have engaged in numerous improvement initiatives. Only those which had long-lasting effect or which were successfully duplicated across many other school districts would be considered encyclopedic. Those which flopped or which are new and untested aren't. This deserves a one-line mention at best. I have a similar issue with school uniforms: They don't deserve more than a one-line mention. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 15:28, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
