This is a K-6 institution, that is elementary level, it does not grant a degree. So it does not fall under that rubric. The quote you cite is refering really to tertiary institutions, although for other reasons we generally treat secondary institutions as notable. We only accept that a very, very few

Leaving aside SCHOOLOUTCOMES, I agree that most elementary schools are not notable. However, most elementary schools don't have two major newspaper articles about their unique beliefs and values, nor has the building they built and occupy been discussed by a half-dozen or more sources because it is

Having someone from a particular school be a leader of some random protest march, does not make the school itself notable. Knowledge needs less presentism. Until we have articles on every elementary school that fed key children in civil rights action in the early 1960s, having this article based on

This school only goes through 8th grade. Schools in the US that do not go to the high school level need very good sourcing to show notability, which is entirely lacking here. In fact this article has existed for almost 13 years, and the only source is the subjects own website. I did a google search

JPL, you should read the last more closely. The student leading the protest attends the school and the school is named. Given the plethora of independent sources, the building the school has built is clearly notable and should have an article. The school itself should be covered in that article as

None of the above shows historic, social, economic, or architectural importance. It shows someone built an energy efficent building and it has nothing to do with the subject of the article - the school and does not have SIGCOV about the school.
359:
None of those sources are substantially about the school, at least one is a caption to a picture provided by this school to a very specialized publication, and the last is about students from many schools and does not specify this school at

is arguably marginally notable, which is the wrinkle here. I think I still support deletion, but I'm not sure the school guidelines are the best way to decide this one. A sentence in Cumberland, Maine is probably appropriate.

My plan is to add several sections on the building itself. It doesn't make sense to delete the article and simply start it over. Moreover, the two full-length Press Herald articles on the school itself constitute significant

Per SCHOOLOUTCOMES, "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions have enough coverage to be notable, although that coverage may not be readily available online." This is an independently accredited

Presentism has nothing to do with it. There are now 2 full-length newspaper articles, sources from 4 independent non-news sites, and an academic journal article on the page.--
700:, may I make a suggestion? Why don't you pick the three best sources, and make arguments on how they show NORG? Perhaps an organized argument might sway myself or others. 443: 246: 158: 266: 131: 126: 135: 286: 118: 105: 90: 309:
