Cardinal Newman High School (Columbia, South Carolina)

This school does not appear to meet our notability standards. That, and it seems to have some serious CoI and Original Research going on, given the way it's written being similar to an advertisement and citing the school's website as a reliable source. --Rainythunderstorm (talk) 10:21, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

 * keep We have generally held high schools to be notable, and I have found enough sources to write an article on this one. Mangoe (talk) 14:09, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus. I'll find time to fix refs/language. EagleFan (talk) 15:23, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. It's a secondary school.  I removed excessive negative tagging at the top of the article.  I left the citation-needed tags within the article, though I don't see the need to question every darn thing about it.  If the school website says it is a middle school and a high school, for example, I don't think a better source is needed. -- do  ncr  am  16:39, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep, this high school has been in existence for a long time, and high school articles fulfill a core Wikipedia objective of getting newbies to get some experience editing--they are gateway articles. Abductive  (reasoning) 16:44, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
