Hi, welcome. Please use the talk page instead of the article for meta discussion. That paragraph was inappropriate for inclusion in the article itself. There is also way too much detail in the article such as the course descriptions. Giving a history of a language and how many people speak it, etc. in an article about a high school because the subject is taught there is way too much detail, just list the courses. The article also needs Reliable sources. It also sounds like promotional material instead of an encyclopedia article. Here's an example of an article about a high school that was rated to be of high quality and was a featured article on the front page of Wikipedia but there are many more examples that you could aspire to: Stuyvesant High School.

 * Sorry for the very late reply, but that article to which you referred me ALSO sounds very, VERY much like promotional material itself. I would have hoped that you could have sent me a better example than THAT.  I also found excessive detail (again, in my own professional opinion) in that Stuyvesant High School article.  The more I read it (with the exception of curriculum description omission), the less impressed I become by it, especially in regard to everything else you critiqued in what I published.  If that kind of thing is what rates highly on Wikipedia, I can only say that I still (as I had already indicated) find dissatisfaction overall in either:  A)  the standards promulgated by Wikipedia, and/or B)  the way in which they are applied (as in hypocritically, frankly).  Thanks for the feedback, though.  It gave me a way to respond back once more.  I donated to Wikipedia once, but because of this kind of thing, I made a moral decision not to do so again.
