Nominating for deletion, as the school does not satisfy WP:GNG, pr WP:ORG with the sources it currently has, and clicking through plenty of Google search results turned up nothing that established notability. I'd also like to, in advance, state that WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES is a guideline, and WP:ORG, plus WP:GNG are what we need to use to establish notability.

  • Keep - Has high school component, notability assumed according to WP:COMMONOUTCOMES which means it is not necessary to try to make the subject pass WP:GNG.
  • Even though schooloutcomes is technically a guideline and technically schools don't have automatic notability, the reality is that high school articles are generally kept on AFD and AFD discussions regarding comprehensive high schools (or multilevel schools including comprehensive high school portions) are pointless. It is much appreciated if people stop nominating most high schools for AFD. It wastes editors' time and energy that could be used for other tasks. Wikipedians have spoken: We want articles about high schools on the English Wikipedia.

Are you sure that that article is not affiliated with the school? It is in the "jobs" section of the newspaper, is very promotional, and then has a link "for more info" to the school's managing organization. It could be a promotional piece written by the school, because it sure looks like one. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 17:49, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Chess: The author's name is "Marjorie Roulmann-Murphy" - I searched that name on Google http://ici.radio-canada.ca/regions/ontario/Radio/Equipe_yapas2matinspareils.shtml and I see an e-mail address for Radio Canada. The same woman wrote another article for L'Express http://lexpansion.lexpress.fr/actualite-economique/toronto-meilleur-en-gestion-qu-au-hockey_1443593.html so she doesn't look like an employee of the school. Also it seems like the portion of the article that is written by the school is in italics at the very end (before the "see more information"). WhisperToMe (talk) 19:15, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as a secondary school per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 18:55, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. While I would agree on deleting some very small, poorly cited, secondary schools, this one passes my standards. Bearian (talk) 19:33, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw, seems legit enough now that there are sources. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 19:41, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
