[edit] POV

this seems like a school promotional page right now, if you ask me --Pyg 00:13, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

This article was probably written by a student or alumnus. I will try to do some cleanup --UnfriendlyFire

Frankly, that's all you really get from the OSA admin. Most criticisms of OSA are directed at the IB program, and possibly how sheltered the school is.

[edit] Vandalism

Most of the edits attack the school's academic background and/or students. I wouldn't be surprised if the anon edits were coming from the school's library. Does the article need to be protected in some way? UnfriendlyFire 20:53, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Many of the edits -are- coming from the school's IP address, but I wouldn't say it needs protection. And I think it would be nice to take it easy on these students...pulling consecutive all-nighters and just the unique competitive atmosphere and the "unorthodox" decisions made by the administration WOULD stress them out. This is just one of their outlets.--Pyg 15:36, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] just some clarifying by people more in the know

Can someone be more specific on: "the men's and women's basketball team this year is currently the best the school has seen in seven years"? Sounds too subjective, obviously written by a student, and pretty vague. It lists a basketball championship at OSA in 2003-4, so the team couldn't be that bad three, four years ago -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.86.55.75 (talk)

According to this diff, it looks like the person who added it probably is/was a student. A statement like that could probably be removed since it isn't NPOV...possibly even COI. UnfriendlyFire 01:50, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
