 * Keep - this is a Blue Ribbon school and as such is clearly notable. In addition, it has an unusual mentoring programme. Far from being an 'Unremarkable middle school'. TerriersFan (talk) 15:41, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Where's the info on the mentoring program? (and it currently doesn't say Blue Ribbon in the article) tedder (talk) 15:50, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Question What is a blue ribbon school and why isn't that metioned or referenced in the article? Why doesn't the article have any references?  Doesn't an article have to have reliable sources? Is there any importance or significance other than it is over the 50th percentile (like half of all schools)? Drawn Some (talk) 15:52, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I have added the ref for the blue ribbon school status. See Blue Ribbon Schools Program on our own site. a little   insignificant  15:58, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep clearly defined notability and is a blue ribbon school. Tedder, you would be wise not to delete my votes in future. a little   insignificant  16:03, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Why is the blue ribbon stuff so significant if over 5,000 schools have received it? Drawn Some (talk) 16:06, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * 5,000 schools is around 4% of schools which is sufficiently exclusive to be notable. TerriersFan (talk) 16:23, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * FWIW, the deletion of your keep was just an edit conflict, apparently- it wasn't done in bad faith. tedder (talk) 16:10, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Keep Per above.-- SKATER  T. 16:15, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
