WP:BLP of a person notable only as a local school board superintendent. This is not an "inherent" notability claim that guarantees a Wikipedia article in and of itself, but the article is not sourced anywhere near well enough to get her over WP:GNG: it's referenced 2/3 to primary sources that do not support notability at all, and 1/3 to a YouTube clip of her giving soundbite in a TV news report that is not about her. Nothing here, either in the substance or the sourcing, is enough to make a superintendent encyclopedically notable. Bearcat (talk) 02:24, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete overly promotional article which does not give a deep context, especially in light of this becoming a more and more common occurance.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:13, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Kalamazoo Promise. Brown appears not infrequently in news sources, , , and many others, but all of the coverage is in relation to the fact that she announced this particular program, a fact better covered at the other article. It's also a valid search term. Vanamonde (talk) 05:12, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
