216:: Having notable alumni doesn't mean anything. The reliable sources are about Village School. But still no indication that it caused any effects on society. There is nothing notable about this school that should be included in an online encyclopedia. It is notable in the school community. But Knowledge (XXG) is not a school community.
437:: What dolfrog is trying to say is Knowledge (XXG) is not a place to advertise local schools. Town articles have more notability than local schools. Therefore, they don't need to prove notability. High schools are notable is NOT policy or guideline. I don't understand why people keep using this as a valid argument.
