The result was redirect to the school distrit mentioned. I'd say merge but what's at the district is what's at the article. Wizardman 22:58, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

notability-this article has not seen significant changes for two years since its last review, essentially another "this elementary school does the basic things an elementary school is supposed to do." Wikipedia is not a list of everything Chris 20:56, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Merge it on over, its a win-win-win situation for us all, readers included. RFerreira 19:09, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - It does not meet policy; WP:N and WP:WIN for starters. Why is a school district more notable than an elementary school? It gains no more notability just because a district is composed of a collection of schools. We are running into consistent conflicts due to confusion; a community's self-value is found in getting a mention in Wikipeida? or somehow having an article validates the existence of a individual schools? These are not the purpose of Wikipedia; we are not a collection of lists, we do not serve to validate the identity of any group or individual. Unless there is something notable, each and every mentio of an elementary school, middle school, and high school should be deleted. --Storm Rider (talk) 00:53, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * concern My argument would be that as a governing body for units that do have notability, and as institutions in their own right, districts are notable. While I am in total agreement on elementary schools and middle schools, the issue has been repeatedly raised about high schools for years and general agreement seems to be in the direction that high schools merit keeping as articles. Please take that passion and direct it at every video-game character article as well as every TV-show episode! :) Wikipedia does need some major housecleaning, but there's a wide swath to choose from long before you ever get to high schools or districts.
