St. John's Episcopal School

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Small private K through 8th grade school. Unsourced since 2006. One news article talks about it's closure a few years ago, but doesn't elaborate on the school itself. Doesn't seem to have a school district to merge/redirect to. Per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, it would need a "clear claim to notability", but searches don't bring up anything, and the article doesn't give me anything to go on unless being 60 years old qualifies. A lot of search hits to unrelated schools of similar names. Estheim (talk) 05:39, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

 * delete I found some sources about other schools like the nominator says are out there, but nothing about this particular one. Let alone anything in-depth that would help it to be notable enough for either WP:GNG or WP:NORG. Which isn't surprising considering it's a K-8th grade school. That said, considering how old it is there might be offline sources that we just aren't privy to. I don't think other voters should use the potential of "offline sources" as a keep excuse. Since it's just as (or highly) likely none exist, offline or otherwise, and the burden is still on the "voters" to "prove" notability. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:10, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Super strong delete "Considering how old it is" that is just rubbish claims. This sub-high school was founded in 1951. The saying is in the US 100 years is a long time and in Brittain 100 miles is a long way, but there is no way an institutions that is 70 years old gets a pass from needing to have indepth sources just because of how long it has existed. Down that path lies madness. By that standard we would create an article on Emerson Elementary School in Detroit opened in 1948 as one of the last neighborhood elementaries to be opened in the city. Down that path lies madness, and we need to avoid it like the plague it is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:17, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
