The result was keep. The keep arguments were more convincing than the merge ones. Wizardman 22:18, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

John F. Kennedy Middle School[edit]

non notable middle school. middle schools do not generally have inherent notability, and this one only has light assertions of notability (otherwise it would be speedied). ⇒ SWATJester ^{Denny Crane.} 01:34, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge along with the other schools into an article about the school district.--JForget 02:05, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per my view of school notability. Eusebeus 10:36, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep article makes explicit claims of notability in terms of alumni and achievements. User:Eusebeus/School Notability not only fails to address any required Wikipedia policy, but makes the false claim that the Wikipedia:Notability standard does not apply to schools, a claim that has been repeatedly rejected. The argument that "A school is notable only if it has attained some distinction for something other than its normal operation as a school." is in direct opposition to any reasonable interpretation of Wikipedia policy on notability: athletes are notable for their athletic achievements; doctors are notable for their distinction in the medical field; Schools are notable specifically for their achievements as a school, a standard that this article satisfies.

Keep - two notable alumni and No.1 magnet school are sufficient claims of notability. TerriersFan 02:54, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
