 * Keep It's a school district, not a single school. No evidence of WP:BEFORE efforts. Jclemens (talk) 02:02, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a school district. Compare with others please.ClemRutter (talk) 08:49, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, because of failure of WP:BEFORE, and success of WP:HEY effort by . Besides, school districts are almost always notable, and we typically redirect non-notable elementary and middle school articles to the appropriate district. Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 09:06, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep An editor once said that school districts pass WP:GEOLAND. I am pretty sure he was right. See WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. Scorpions13256 (talk) 20:34, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete This article is super lacking in useful information in an encyclopedia and super overly covering details that do not matter much in the long run of things. The very nature of these articles is they tend towards overly detailed snapshots of an arbitrary moment. Having read literally thousands of these articles I can say virtually none have any useful information, and we would be better off removing them than letting them stand as an overly detailed snapshot of the world in about 2011 for the next 50 years.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:33, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, was there supposed to be a policy-based deletion rationale there, or are you simply intentionally making a statement of preference knowing it's against consensus? Jclemens (talk) 08:17, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, As school districts are almost always notable.Jackattack1597 (talk) 09:35, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
