Washington Elementary School (Hawthorne, New Jersey)

No evidence of notability; does not meet WP:NSCHOOL. Elementary schools are not generally considered notable if they do not meet either WP:GNG or WP:NORG, which this does not. >>> Ingenuity . talk ; 02:08, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Hawthorne Public Schools, which is probably what should have been the initial solution here. Alansohn (talk) 02:17, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect - to Hawthorne Public Schools. There's nothing to merge so a simple redirect works fine. It looks like the content of the article was copy-pasted from some high school's article since this article mentions the school being a high school, which it is not. It also doesn't serve grades 5-6, it serves grades K-5 like most other public elementary schools in the United States. Per WP:NSCHOOLS the article's subject needs to meet WP:GNG and it does not. - Aoidh (talk) 03:01, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Hawthorne Public Schools as non-notable; I was considering nominating this myself after a WP:BEFORE turned up nothing meaningful. The copy-pasted content should also be revdel'd ASAP. I'm copying my comment from the other AfD, as both articles have exactly the same notability and copy-paste issues. ComplexRational (talk) 13:37, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect in lieu of merge to the accuracy issues raised with the text. Consensus is generally that elementary schools aren't sufficiently notable and a BEFORE identifies no exceptions in this case. Star   Mississippi  14:45, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect - to the school district per all above. I'd suggest the nominator simply withdraw this and close it, then boldly just do the redirect. 174.212.229.93 (talk) 16:27, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
