Not a diploma granting institution, but a shared voc - tech education center for several school districts. Fails WP:ORG, and since it does not qualify for a school exception should be deleted John from Idegon (talk) 08:35, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment Why doesn't it qualify for a school exception? This is a high school and that is covered by WP:SCHOOL. 🔯 Sir Joseph 🍸 (talk) 14:27, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a public secondary school that serves multiple school districts. There's no place to merge this to, as it's a standalone school. Given the availability of sources about the school, its program, development and history, this is a keeper. Alansohn (talk) 00:06, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn - Although this school meets GNG, it doesn't meet ORG. However, I'm still going to withdraw this in light of 's comments. Most shared tech-voc centers such as this operate under the auspices of a school district or an intermediate school district.  This one appears to be a joint venture created by the schools and districts involved. That's unique. Alan, as you are on the East coast, is there any way you could try to add some historical context to the origin of this school? , the school exemption only applies to diploma granting institutions. The kids that go here graduate from their home school with a tech-voc diploma,  not from here. The tech-voc center is a common model for tech education, but the kids do split days here and at their home schools. I'll leave a more detailed explanation on your talk.

 * , I'll research, but it's not exactly that close. The article would clearly benefit from added sourcing. Alansohn (talk) 01:17, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Alan. The bad thing about living where I do is the book is always checked out of the library. John from Idegon (talk) 01:25, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
