The edits I have made to the Academics and Athletics sections make them neutral. Some of the statements in the sections are unverifiable (because they are not true and therefore, cannot be verified). I removed no information from the Athletics section, but instead expanded on it. The Academics section, yes, I can see why the changes I made there can be called "excessive" when I removed the information about the National Merit Finalists. The last few sentences of that section, however, are non-verifiable. I understand that many alumni (myself included) attend the colleges and universities listed there but no google search brings up anything to say how many students are attending college, let alone where they are attending. The rest of the information in this section is notable and verifiable, and I merely expanded upon it. Expletusnox 04:19, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I recommend removing some of the names in the article (i.e. the stars of the spring play). Such information is superfluous and inappropriate should any of those persons be under the age of 18. Quality Standards Stub added to account for items such as "In fact, most honors classes are equivalent to freshman college classes." Editing of rivals, Principal, and size is correct.

edited Athletics and other sections to reduce Neutrality issues.--Bhockey10 (talk) 05:58, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] History

does anyone know where to find info on the schools history, my knowledge is vaige and the school's website doesn't have a history section like most schools, i know it goes back to the early 20th century at least and major upgrades and expansion in the early 1990s but that's about all I can remember!--Bhockey10 (talk) 05:58, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
