Talk:List of schools of the Seattle School District

Untitled
The latitude/longitude data on this page is messed up. The location given for B F Day Elementary, for example, is actually the location for Adams Elementary. Does anyone know where this data was sourced from? Cromas (talk) 21:22, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I got the data from Google Maps when I wrote the article, but I realized later that I had mixed several of the locations up &mdash; unfortunately, I never found the time to go back and correct them all. I'll put that on my list of maintenance tasks to complete when I get some time.--Deejayk (talk) 15:56, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

List is getting excessive
This this is getting too excessive and formatting-heavy and seems more almanaic than encyclopedia. Information in annual reports and enrollment get outdated frequently and rarely would get updated to current data, so I suggest migrating the list tables from the Seattle public schools page to replace the exhaustive tables.

Article is inaccurate by design
"Information gathered from maps" is incorrect. Also note that in the Seattle School District (SSD) the name of the school and the name of the building the school is in is distinct. A difinitive list of current Seattle Schools is at http://www.seattleschools.org/modules/cms/pages.phtml?pageid=197023. Many are new as of 2009: Jane Adams K-8 was "Summit K-12 @ Addams" ("Jane Addams Junior High School was the first secondary school constructed by Shoreline School District No. 412" see http://www.historylink.org/index.cfm?DisplayPage=output.cfm&file_id=10445) (city-wide transportation was expensive for this "one room schoolhouse"); and Queen Anne Elementary School was Secondary BOC (bilingual orientation center) K-12 @ ; also Van Asselt (of 1970's building at 7201 Beacon S) moved into the. According to B. F. Day Elementary School was built in 1892 and Lowell School was opened 1890 per http://lowelles.seattleschools.org/modules/cms/pages.phtml?pageid=212966. A list of SSD buildings is at http://www.district.seattleschools.org/modules/groups/homepagefiles/cms/1583136/File/Departmental%20Content/facilities/BuildingsandSites/SPSproperty_list.pdf (inventory at http://district.seattleschools.org/modules/groups/homepagefiles/cms/1583136/File/Departmental%20Content/facilities/Conditions/MasterPlan/MasterPlan2020/2020fmprevisions.pdf ) it does note that Meany Middle School is now "The World School" and some other facts. Your Picture should be removed or re-researched because although they are still on Wiki Commons the original links are dead (no longer hosted by Seattle School District Website). "Oldest School" Van Asselt was in mostly 1970's buildings at 7201 Beacon S before they moved to AAA building in 2009. SSD Website has "first school built on the South end of Seattle as a one-room school house in 1862.". Built 1905, "Old John Hay"(wood) at 411 Boston St then "New John Hay"(brick, 1922, built at fron of that block) but current John Hay elementary at 201 Garfied St (~1 mi. away). TOPS program (The Option Program at Stevens originally; all caps) is currently in the Seward building.
