The result was redirect to Johnston County School District. Usually I don't close on one !vote but schools are redirected to districts/locations per SCHOOLOUTCOMES, Nom's not bothered and I obviously would've gone with R too so it's a win win really.

Suggest deletion per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES as the district this school is in doesn't seem to have a page. No indication of notability or significance on this school per notability guidelines. 331dot (talk) 20:07, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Redirect to school district article or the school's locality as per standard practice for non notable mainstream schools. appears to have either misunderstood WP:OUTCOMES or is not aware of 'Redirection' as a policy alternative to deletion. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:28, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
 * As I indicated, the school district doesn't seem to have a page, and SCHOOLOUTCOMES states redirecting to the locality is typically done with non-North American schools. 331dot (talk) 20:49, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
 * please understand that the recommendation to redirect to the school's locality applies quite obviously to all regions, territories, and countries. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:46, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
 * If you want to do that, it actually doesn't bother me- but that's not what the guideline says: "Schools that don't meet the standard typically get merged or redirected to the school district that operates them (North America) or the lowest level locality (elsewhere) rather than being completely removed from the encyclopedia."  It seems to draw a distinction between North America(where schools are often run by a separate body than a municipality/county) and elsewhere.   If you don't think that's the intention of the guideline, I would suggest changing it. 331dot (talk) 10:29, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
 * , the intention of OUTCOMES in respect to non notable schools, which is not a guideline but a neutral summary of how some articles are treated, is to demonstrate a clear policy irrespective of whether there is a local governing body or not. I would have thought that where policy trumps essays, summary pages or guidelines, it should be blatantly obvious. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:03, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
 * As I indicated, if you want to redirect it somewhere, go ahead, I will not stand in the way. Personally I think it should be redirected to a page on the school district instead of an unrelated locality(the town or county) but I suggested deletion because a page on the school district does not seem to exist.  What is "obvious" to me is that the "policy" does not seem to indicate what to do in such an event so I deferred to the "essay".  Personally I would be careful in presuming to know what is "blatantly obvious" to the other 7 billion people on this planet. 331dot (talk) 11:25, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
