This is an irrelevant institution in terms of importance, being only known inside its hometown. Always keep on asking "why?". Maringaense (talk) 10:22, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep The consensus has been that all secondary schools are notable. This has been consistently applied to American and British schools. If we do not apply it worldwide we will just increase systemic uneven coverage.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:02, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per John Pack Lambert and why not? One could ask "why?" about 90% of Wikipedia. Inclusion of this topic makes more sense than many and this article is relatively well written, structured, etc. giso6150 (talk) 14:27, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:08, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:GNG, and there simply aren't enough reliable sources to base an article on. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:26, 27 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Scratch that - I was using the find sources links at the top of this page, but the article name doesn't match the school's current name. I will search for sources in the morning if I have time. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:29, 27 April 2016 (UTC)


 * This discussion was closed this morning by User:SwisterTwister as "speedy keep as secondary schools are always kept as notable". Whereas:
 * The guidelines at WP:SK do not incorporate this as a valid reason for a speedy keep;
 * User:SwisterTwister is not an administrator;
 * The guideline at WP:DPR states that a deletion discussion closed by a user who is not an administrator may be reverted and reopened by an administrator giving reasons for doing so; and
 * I, an administrator, have formed the opinion that it is right and appropriate in the circumstances to reopen the discussion, now, therefore
 * This discussion is reopened and relisted, with all !votes cast to state standing, and
 * In view of this relisting, will be granted a fresh 7-day listing period effective from today. Stifle (talk) 13:19, 29 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep as secondary schools are notable.  ThePlatypusofDoom    Talk  13:55, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I'd be interested to see evidence of sources that demonstrate that notability in relation to this school,, as I'm currently searching for them. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:05, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Generally, the consensus is that high schools are almost always considered notable, see WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:50, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Most are indeed kept,, but if a school is notable then it should be possible to demonstrate that notability (notability being a policy, whereas SCHOOLOUTCOMES is just a summary of common outcomes) - hence the wording of WP:WPSCH/AG, which says they are usually kept, as they are almost always found to be notable. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:06, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, per the standing consensus that high school articles are usually valid for inclusion, detailed at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and WP:WPSCH/AG. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:50, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. The standard consensus has a purpose, which is to prevent hundreds of thousands of afds of high schools and elementary schools, and simply divide them into two groups, the high schools, where an article will be kept, and the elementary schools, where it normally will not. It's not  precisely a consensus to say that one group is notable and the other not, but to say that we are going to treat one group as being notable and the other not, as a matter of convenience. But it is rational on grounds of actual notability also: when we did consider afds on schools, most articles on  established high school were able to show it, because of having notable alumni and championship teams, and their major role in their communities. Most elementary schools were not able, having only  mere notices.  DGG ( talk ) 00:52, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - the entire content of the article at present appears to come from the school's own website (and looks to be a copyright violation). I have looked for independent sources to use instead or to supplement the school's website, but so far have been unable to find enough coverage to base an article on.
