Comment: I'm sorry, this just doesn't quite pass WP:NSCHOOL. I would really recommend merging some of the content into Allegheny Valley School District, as this would be suitable there and wouldn't need to pass the notability test. Qcne (talk) 21:21, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: See WP:NSCHOOL. Greenman (talk) 22:19, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Creating editor is strongly advised to read My first article and WP:42. Wikipedia is not a directory. Not every subject gets an article. You have to show the subject is notable and you do that by paraphrasing your content from reliable secondary independent sources. Very simply put, if you do not have sources like that, you do not have an article. That's no reflection on you or the school. At one time, almost all high schools were considered notable, but that changed about 5 years ago. 69.92.163.38 (talk) 23:16, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
