Merge with the Parish School?[edit]

There is a notability tag on this article, and it would make a lot of sense to merge this article with The Parish School. I'd rather not, but have no particularly good reason not to. The Adventure playground is notable in itself--at least insofar as it is a important to the "adventure playground movement," the site of several studies, one of the few permanent junk playgrounds in the United States, and the only one that explicitly serves children with social and communication differences.^[1] All the same, it is part of the Parish School, and merging it would (at least) provide a reason to clean up that entry.Mr leroy playpus (talk) 20:32, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

--It is located at the Parish School, and thus operates through it. However, it is open to the public and has a number of children from off campus throughout the year. Unlike the school, it is not specific to children with learning differences, though the staff have training to accommodate. Hence the unique character of the playground (and the research specific to it) merit a separate article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.0.32.93 (talk) 23:25, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
