 * Delete. Non-notable school. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 02:40, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect- My Prod removal edit summary in full: 'Uniquely named K-8 school that would best serve as a redirect to Oxford, Ohio, where it is already listed; no Warren City School District yet, and no List of private schools in Ohio; WSD is PA.' Routine coverage. Dru of Id (talk) 03:30, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Is a redir actually needed? WP has got a good search engine. Is there other private schools in Oxford, Ohio? -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 04:06, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * This is the 26 search result list drawn by scrambling the terms; Oxford, Ohio was the only hyperlink in article space. Redirecting serves as a placeholder if notability is met later or guidelines change. Does no harm, and they're cheap; can be re-anchored as articles develop. Prevents unnecessary recreations by not leaving a void, and despite WP:NOTDIRECTORY, fits default consensus to permit Education sections in community articles & (under WP:ORG) School district articles with referencing. Oxford has Miami University, but I don't know about Jefferson., . Dru of Id (talk) 04:31, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * (Computer freeze) Talawanda school district has three public elementaries (Bogan, Kramer, Marshall), but there do not appear to be any other private schools in Oxford, no. Dru of Id (talk) 04:44, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Oxford, Ohio per Dru of Id. The school doesn't look notable, but a redirect will be useful for readers. —  Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 07:27, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Dru of Id and Mr. Stradivarius, and our past practice at AfD: primary schools are almost always redirected, rather than kept or deleted outright. Bearian (talk) 16:53, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
