Assessment: Hello all, and thank you for contributing to this school article. I'm part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools/Assessment team, and I'm reviewing this page. I'm currently giving it a grade of Stub on the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale and an importance of Low on this importance scale. For information on improving this article, please visit the WikiProject Schools Project Page. My reasoning is as follows: Not much here and no references.

[edit] May, 2008

Greetings editors! I recently went through and gutted a great deal of this article.

Before adding anything to this article, please consider reading WP:SCH#WNTI.

This is part of the page set up by the Wikischools project, and specifically addresses what not to include in articles about schools. For the most part, students and staff should not be included, unless they have done something worthy of their own article in Wikipedia.

Also, keep in mind: this is an encyclopedia article, not the school homepage. News items of short-term importance (like upcoming summer break .... though I have to think that is VERY much anticipated after a Fairbanks winter) are really not encyclopedic. Information about the computerized grade access are also not of long term interest. That information is great for a school website, but not for an encyclopedia.

The history section is off to a good start. Consider including references from third party, neutral, reputable sources. Also, a section on academic accomplishments, notable alumni (those that would have their own articles here), athletic accomplishments (state championships), notable rivalries, etc. would be great additions.

Best of luck, and stay warm! LonelyBeacon (talk) 00:17, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

I did my best to add some information, and added a school infobox. There is still a need for references. I wish you the best of luck! LonelyBeacon (talk) 01:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
