 * Secondary schools are not inherently notable, and this article fails to prove any notability. DukeOfSquirrels 07:47, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 12:43, 19 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. Whilst this may be a good school with fine aims, that in no way makes it notable. There are many schools like this one, and nothing to mark it out from its peers. Also, references/sources are non-existent. Sorry. WMMartin 13:52, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment &mdash; Needs a reformat and expansion before I'd support it. &mdash; RJH (talk) 20:04, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per my arguments here. Soltak | Talk 23:40, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per my two cents' worth here, and although this is a private school and not a public school, it is still an institution that has enormous influence on the students, and therefore on one or more communities. Noroton 16:23, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * delete The only thing notable proposed for this school is that it was named after Damien. He of course was famous--but that does not make the school notable--on this logic we would consider all schools named after Washington or Lincoln notable. DGG 21:08, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep 1962 school, significant history. --Vsion 06:22, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as a fully accredited and notable secondary school. Yamaguchi先生 02:35, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * A school being "accredited" does not make it notable. DukeOfSquirrels 03:50, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Please note the use of the word "and" in Yamaguchi's statement. "Fully accredited and notable."  Yamaguchi is not implying that accreditation makes a school notable.  --Myles Long 19:16, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep per Yamaguchi, et al. --Myles Long 19:16, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per Yamaguchi, this does appear to be a notable school with a significant history. (jarbarf) 00:26, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. All schools are notable. It could use a clean up for advertising language though. AntiVan 05:51, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
