 * Speedy keep. Even the most cursory search at GNews turns up several hundred of news stories covering this school, and not all of them are in North Dakota papers, either. --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:04, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. According to WP:NHS, community consensus is that high schools are inherently notable. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 01:54, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep I would like to see some references, If they can be provided, then there is no reason to delete. – Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 02:19, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Fargo Public Schools. The two non-ND references provided by Arxiloxos just announce the dedication of the school this year. It's too new to have distinguished itself. WP:NHS is an essay. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:08, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep- we delete subjects that are likely, or have been shown to be, non-notable. In the case of high schools experience shows that with sufficient research enough sources to meet WP:GNG will be found, and this school clearly has them. In the case of such notable subjects we tag the pages for improvement as a much more constructive way forward than deletion. To start the process I am cleaning up the article.

 * Keep- per standard procedure for  schools and TerriersFan. Schools may  not  be deleted per A7 and there is no  reasons why  this AfD should be closed as 'delete' for a lack  of references.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:03, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Setting aside the precedent for notability of High Schools, I'm finding quite a few sources about this one. Notability may be thin due to the subject's age (or lack thereof), but it's there. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 13:27, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep- Through long-standing precedent, all high schools are inherently notable. Trusilver  23:51, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep although there is debate about school being inherintly notable, I err on the side of caution in most cases. Propose WP:Snow Gaijin42 (talk) 19:32, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
