Middle schools are not inherently notable, unlike High Schools. Nothing in the articles suggests notability, and a quick internet trawl suggests that none will be forthcoming. Ged UK (talk) 09:03, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Some of the basic information could be mentioned in the article Yorktown High School (New York). The nominator is correct, and I appreciate that the Wikipedia community didn't nominate this one immediately after it came out on September 18.  In most instances, articles about middle schools or elementary schools are part of a class lesson, and they come down after a short stay; this article appears to have served its purpose.   Although the usual answer in cases like this is to merge to an article about the school district, there is no district article oops, yes there is, thanks Eastmain.  This appears to be the only middle school in the district served by the high schol.  Mandsford (talk) 13:12, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Yorktown Central School District rather than delete. If text is to be transferred to Yorktown Central School District, deleting this article would violate the GFDL. -- Eastmain (talk) 15:25, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect to Yorktown Central School District - no need to delete a useful redirect. This could just have been merged/redirected without an AfD. I have carried out the merge of a minimal amount of content. TerriersFan (talk) 16:26, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
