 * Delete There is nothing notable about this private primary school.  Cullen 328  Let's discuss it  21:17, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - as not complying with WP:ORG. I have carried out a search for sources and found insufficient to stand up notability. Finally, I have not been able to find a suitable redirect target. The Whispering Wind (talk) 21:32, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. Curtis is a well-known private school. An unusual history: founded with a heavy orientation toward physical education, the founder committed suicide in 1932 , the school went on and became an academic institution later in the 1930s, and GNews has lots of (paywalled) coverage from those early decades  .  Lots of celebrity kids means lots of mentions; for example, many gossipy reports about the adventures of Posh and Becks in L.A. (examples: ).   I'm ambivalent about whether any of this adds up to notability in the Wikipedia sense, but it should not go unmentioned during this AfD. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:25, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Add re redirect: If redirect is the answer, a suitable redirect target would be Bel Air, Los Angeles, or possibly Sepulveda Pass. (Curtis is in the same basic location as Berkeley Hall, The Mirman School, The Westland School, etc. --Arxiloxos (talk) 17:27, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
