 * Strong Keep School has won some 47 state sports championships and two state-wide academic bowl championships. Sources are provided for the overwhelming majority of these achievements, with many more sources to come. The schools boys and girls cross country running teams have won more than 3/4s of the state championships in their class since the early 1990s. Notability is established.

 * Keep per Alansohn. -- DS1953 talk 17:46, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notablity asserted, article development well underway. EagleFan 20:17, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: A school with twenty-five cross-country state championships in the last seventeen years must have had numerous newspaper articles about such a notable level of dominance. On that alone the school would pass WP:NN and WP:V, even if it was otherwise wholly unnoted and unremarkable, a stipulation lacking in evidence.    Ravenswing  20:23, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Solid Keep &mdash; Nom. didn't even present a case against for deletion. What was the point? &mdash; RJH (talk) 22:55, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I certainly agree that the overwhelming majority of high schools are notable, and this one is no exception. I also wonder about the lack of justification an reasoning of many AfDs, and the fact that this AfD was created by a new user in his first five edits on Wikipedia. However, you may want to take a look at the article as it existed when the AfD was created. Alansohn 23:27, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Alansohn, certainly notable for the sport section.--JForget 00:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - a remarkable and notable sporting record. TerriersFan 17:59, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
