Ridge Academy

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This is a non-notable school with very few sources that talk about this school. The article was originally created by someone who thought the school was a high school (see this screenshot I took for proof the creator thought the school was a high school: http://gyazo.com/2952915ee002d35405eec958ab7f56ac) Andise1 (talk) 23:36, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete I see nothing but incidental mentions in the press. I see not features detailing this subject. I see no points of notability. Most elementary schools are non-WP:N. N is not established for this one.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:17, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - TonyTheTiger put it best. There is no notability. Based on WP:OUTCOMES, this article could pass AfD with a keep if it showed notability. However, all of the coverage that I see is local to the Chicago or surrounding areas and say nothing that would make it notable. The WP:RS that are available (although again, they are still local) simply verify its existence. Unfortunately, I believe this needs to be deleted or redirected to a school district where it is located (even though it is private I would lean towards a redirect to preserve the article).--FoolMeOnce2Times (talk) 15:59, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete. The short age of the school makes it unsurprising that notability can't really be proven. The article should be deleted now, but I would not be opposed to recreation if something changes in that regard. Ducknish (talk) 21:17, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
