Currently in the process of redirecting/merging these non-notable school articles. This article is likely controversial, it was kept during an afd in 2006 but the grounds for keeping it failed to cite useful policy matter, and ignored the fact that this article is unsourced and fails WP:GNG and WP:N. Recently a decision related to school articles determined that most Secondary schools are notable and that only a select few pre-secondary schools are notable. Marcusmax ( speak ) 14:08, 7 July 2009 (UTC) Merge as above. There's no attempt to justify notability. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:38, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect to School District 38 Richmond. Since the previous AfD the standard has changed and is broadly as outlined by Marcusmax. I have examined the sources and agree that this school is not independently notable. However, I don't agree with the approach being taken which is to simply redirect. Redirecting alone is not a merge. What is required is to make a table into which the key information can be merged, possibly as a subsidiary article. TerriersFan (talk) 19:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge to School District 38 Richmond. I agree with TerriersFan. The info should be kept at the school district article or a Schools in article and in a format that invites expansion until there is sufficient V, NPOV, NOR content to justify its own article.

 * Comment - I have halted all my redirects, I just figured that would be better per WP:NOT but merging or deletion is perfectly reasonable as well. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 23:42, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
