Comment.This organization was founded as the Florida Association of Christian Schools, so it would be good to searched that name as well. I may or may not get around to doing so myself, so no !vote from me at this time.Jacona (talk) 11:10, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Jacona, do you have a source on that? I searched and couldn't find anything, although this source [[1]] may go towards establishing notability User:Let'srun 02:09, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Also a good search would be for Al Janney, the segregationist Baptist preacher who founded the organization as an accreditation haven for segregated schools, such as Dade Christian School which he also founded. If the article is to be kept, it should attend to the reason it was established in the first place. — Jacona (talk) 11:43, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  I don't have the ability to do much deep research, but I'd like to make note that the organizations that grew up around the post-Brown v Board of Education segregation movement are important to accurately and completely cover that movement. And school integration and the responses to it are the most important piece of 20th century (arguably, the entire) history of education in the US. 4.37.252.50 (talk) 19:59, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  4.37.252.50, I think plenty of sources are available, from looking at newspapers.com, but I have trouble finding the energy to work on preserving the page because I think they’re horrible people. — Jacona (talk) 21:32, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Seems like editors didn't have motivation to investigate the possible sources for this article so here's another week in case you want to get around to this.

Weak keep per source found by Let'srun and this book [2]. It seems as though other sources exist, though I do see a lot of references in passing. (One note, I also saw a book called The Praeger Handbook of Faith-Based Schools in the United States, K–12 which has an entry written by a member so it is not an independent source) —siro χ o 07:32, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
