School district
Hi! Nice to see a nice message on my page for a change!

OK, here's the deal with that. This is an encyclopedia. We are not a news source, we don't try to warn people about an entity. We are not supposed to report the news (WP:NOTNEWS)

If you were to look in an old World Book Encyclopedia about a school district, it would only contain generic information about the district. We can update quicker and include more information, but the general idea remains the same.

There are lots of things we could source about quite a few things, but when it comes down to it, you have to ask yourself if it really belongs in an encyclopedia. For me, at least, that is the defining point.

Thanks again for the note. If I can be of any assistance, please let me know. I'm not an administrator here, but I've been here quite a while.
