High Tech Academy (Highland Springs, Virginia)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:GNG. This is not a school. It is a small program (only 2 teachers as far as I can determine) which is part of the Advance Career Education Center at Highland Springs (ACE) high school. http://henricoschools.us/pdf/Schools/SecondaryProfiles/HighlandSpringsTech.pdf ACE is a small (22-teacher) high school http://schools.henrico.k12.va.us/acecenterathighlandsprings/ which mostly deals with vocational studies. I would suggest merging and redirecting this to the ACE article, but we don't have an article for it. We do have an article for the school district: Henrico County Public Schools.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per WP:PROMO; strictly advertising. Sources are insufficient to meet GNG, as is part of a non-notable entity Advance Career Education Center at Highland Springs. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:58, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - Neither this program nor ACE, mentioned by several above, is technically a secondary school. As mentioned above, this is not even a school, it is a program at ACE. ACE is not a secondary school but a technical education center used by several legitimate secondary schools. The students that attend here take their core classes at those secondary schools, actually graduate from those schools and only receive vocational education at this school.  It's not an uncommon educational model, and by all means it should be discussed at the district's article, but I see no reason for an article or a redirect.
