*'''Keep''' per Zagalejo. Apparently we don't have a firm policy on school notability, but given that the Chicago Tribune has published multiple articles about it I think it clearly passes. Also in Lexis/Nexis there was an old article mentioning a teacher from this school who received a national teaching award (Laura Bush was at the ceremony). Anyhow it seems we allow most articles on schools to exist, so I don't see why this one would be any different.--] <small>| ] | ]</small> 20:27, 30 August 2007 (UTC) *'''Keep''' per Zagalejo.

  • Strong Keep This is a mainstream Chicago Public High School! There are plenty of newspaper articles available as sources: , . (And these are just articles that have Curie in the headline or byline.) I would volunteer to clean up the article myself, but unfortunately I've recently lost my free access to the Tribune archives.

  • Keep per Zagalejo. Apparently we don't have a firm policy on school notability, but given that the Chicago Tribune has published multiple articles about it I think it clearly passes. Also in Lexis/Nexis there was an old article mentioning a teacher from this school who received a national teaching award (Laura Bush was at the ceremony). Anyhow it seems we allow most articles on schools to exist, so I don't see why this one would be any different.--Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 20:27, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep the general consensus on high schools (if I recall correctly, I know there's nothing "official" and so such assumptions are going to be shaky at best regardless of who makes them) seems to be that they are inherently notable, and the newspaper articles above certainly allow it to pass.

  • Keep even though only directory information is now present. I think that's enough for a a valid stub, and that almost all high school articles will be found notable when sufficient work is done. I think there is a growing consensus to that effect, and also that the the practical thing to do is to simply say so, and stop wasting time at AfD with these. This is a change of position of mine--I have come to think it unproductive to try to remove the few high school articles that are not yet fully written on the chance that some will be non-notable.

  • Comment. I'm not entirely convinced that the sources above constitute the "significant coverage" required by WP:N. Jakew 00:17, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
