"The school achieved notoriety in the spring of 2003" would be better as "The school achieved recognition in the spring of 2003." "Notorious" and "noteriety" generally have a negative meaning and are different from "noteworty" or "renown." I made the change and hope the author has no objections.

If you propose to add someone as a notable alumni who is not a well-known name, please explain on this page why you think the person should be added. -- DS1953 talk 15:22, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

RE: Notable Alumni This is a sensitive issue, but it should be clear that forms of vanity etc. should not be tolerated. We are all important; we went to Parker after all! Let's just keep cool on the "notable alumni" section.
