Fair use rationale for Image:Thedormbuilding.jpg
Image:Thedormbuilding.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The line "The MSSM is a boarding school with a dormitory for up to 140 students" is no longer correct. We recently acquired a second dormitory housing up to 40 more students, increasing our capacity to 180 students. Additionally, our enrollment is listed as 103. As of the 2013-2014 school year, that was 130.

Please change in the first paragraph: one dorm to two. Enrollment on the sidebar: 150.

I have looked, but from what I can see, the official website only mentions one dorm and gives no enrollment figures. - Arjayay (talk) 18:29, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

Manor
The manor closed after the 2016-2017 after it began to flood repeatedly and was deemed uninhabitable. Leveyeathan (talk) 17:18, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

I'd like to add a "See also" section similar to that shown on the page of similar schools, such as Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics. The section could read as follows:

1998 hacking incident
I remember this on the news, but can't find a good reference. If anyone has it, might be worth mentioning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.51.112.102 (talk) 22:55, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

Sports Teams
MSSM no longer shares its sports teams. The school has its own independent boys and girls soccer teams, its own cross-country team, its own nordic ski team, and its own track and field team. If someone who knows how to fix this can, please do so. 24.39.61.178 (talk) 03:24, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
