 * Keep - Schools are not included for WP:ORG. You might as well nominate 90% of other school articles for deletion. POKERdance talk/ contribs 06:41, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Wrong: "Simply stated, an organization is a group of more than one person formed together for a purpose. This includes commercial and non-commercial activities, such as ... educational institutions" as stated at WP:ORG. Also, "high schools being kept except where they fail verifiability" (emphasis added) as stated at . WWGB (talk) 06:49, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep per precedent/common outcomes - verifiable high school as the Gnews link above shows, they appear to have a decent cricket team that is covered in The Hindu. - SpacemanSpiff Calvin&#8225;Hobbes 07:13, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - this was prodded 2 minutes after creation which I regard as unacceptable; what research can have been carried out in that time? This is a high school that is significant in its community. The page needs to be expanded over time as sources become available from local searches; bearing in mind that Indian schools have a poor Internet presence and we must avoid systemic bias.

 * Keep As it turns out that well over 90% of secondary schools are notable when the work is done on them, our practice of including all verifiable high schools is a reasonable one and well established. i suppose its the nature of an encyclopedia like ours that even the best-established compromise will need to be continually defended. It's one of the reasons working here can sometimes be depressing--and least for those who want to work in a coonstructive manner.  DGG ( talk ) 14:24, 17 August 2009 (UTC).
 * Depression is a mental disorder, that's my "coonstructive" comment. 203.33.160.144 (talk) 10:51, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. It's a high school, it exists, so keep. Shreevatsa (talk) 19:40, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
