This is an unsourced article (for close to 6 years now) about a private K-12 school in Indiana. It exists, that's about it. The school doesn't appear to meet WP:GNG at all as I'm not able to locate any significant coverage of the school, outside the mention of snow closures.

 * Delete per nom and in WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, primary and secondary schools are usually merged to the school district, this is a private school with very little coverage other than WP:ROUTINE stuff that Rick mentions.  In doing a BEFORE search, there is a paywalled story about arming teachers of which the school appears to have been mentioned but doesn't add to notability.

 * Delete all I could find about this were some trivial name drops in school directories. They are also mentioned in the article about teachers having guns, but by itself the reference isn't enough to show the school is notable. Really even if it was combined with other references it probably wouldn't be. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:05, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect to Chesterton, Indiana, where the school is already mentioned, per Deletion policy. Preserving the history will allow for a selective merge and for the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future. The article contains an infobox that can be reused if the school later is determined to be notable. Cunard (talk) 10:39, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment:, , and , would you support a redirect to Chesterton, Indiana per Deletion policy? Thank you, Cunard (talk) 06:51, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Sure I have no problem with that as an alternative. RickinBaltimore (talk) 12:18, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Fine by me. Jip Orlando (talk) 14:27, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping. I'm fine with that. --Adamant1 (talk) 23:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you all for supporting a redirect as an alternative to deletion! Cunard (talk) 06:50, 3 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Chesterton, Indiana per Cunard. --Adamant1 (talk) 23:52, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Chesterton, Indiana. Remarkably, there were only two articles on newspapers.com that mentioned this school, outside of stories about sports (mostly hockey) and brides. Grand&#39;mere Eugene (talk) 15:31, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
