Fails WP:GNG and WP:NORG. A search for sources only turned up primary sources or unreliable sources such as databases etc. or sources for other schools of the same name such as ones in Nigeria, Virginia, etc. Lavalizard101 (talk) 11:13, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lavalizard101, consider using the Wikipedia Library to search news sources. A search on newspapers.com provides access to many sources that are both WP:SECONDARY and reliable. An examination of these may provide significant coverage to pass the general notability guideline, which is the relevant guideline for schools. (see WP:NSCHOOL). It's a little work, but should probably be done as part of your research WP:BEFORE nominating an article for deletion. If you have questions about how to access, feel free to hit me up on my talk page. Thanks! — Jacona (talk) 17:57, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I believe your edit here [1] added the wrong url. Lavalizard101 (talk) 18:04, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I must respectfully disagree with your assessment that this article fails Wikipedia's general notability guideline (WP:GNG) and constitutes original research (WP:NORG). Without more specifics on which aspects you feel fail to meet guidelines or constitute original research, it is difficult to address your concerns. High schools are generally considered notable per WP:GNG, as explained in the Wikipedia:Notability (high schools) page. Independent sources that meet WP:GNG can usually be found for government-run and even the smallest private schools.

In addition to the current sourcing that includes references to establish notability, additional sources, dating back five decades to 1974, can readily be gathered from regional newspapers online. Emperorian125 (talk) 21:17, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

•Weak Keep- due to the school starting in 1974 we will find more offline coverage for this school than online coverage. But there is just enough references from reliable sources to keep the article. 😎😎PaulGamerBoy360😎😎 (talk) 00:29, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Sources in the article plus those available at newspapers.com are sufficient SIGCOV to pass GNG. Jacona (talk) 20:43, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I have revert a close by a IP due to failing WP:NAC's experience criteria and being blocked for vandalism -- Sohom (talk) 08:37, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
