No evidence that this school is notable. GeorgeLouis (talk) 05:20, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

High schools are generally considered inherently notable. The school clearly exists. On the other hand, per WP:NHS, a Google search turns up very little of particular use. — This, that and the other (talk) 09:55, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- However, it does seem most articles on verified high schools are kept regardless of the official guideline, for what its worth. TB randley 02:56, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as a senior high school. No reason to think that sources cannot be found to meet WP:ORG. We keep high schools for very good reasons; not only do they influence the lives of thousands of people but they also play a significant part in their communities. Expansion not deletion is the way to go with such stubs. TerriersFan (talk) 15:46, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It clearly exists, and as a high school ought to be given the benefit of the doubt. A Google search does turn up enough to verify the article. Ducknish (talk) 17:23, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Can't see any reason to delete this. Notable per the usual standards, plenty of coverage exists (just look at the GNews results for "Waverly Shell Rock"), and this article already has substantive content. --Arxiloxos (talk) 18:57, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per longstanding consensus that high schools of verified existence are presumed notable. Carrite (talk) 00:38, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Many more newspaper sources can be found by eliminating the word "Senior" from Google search terms. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES accurately describes the outcome of the vast majority of such AfDs, and I find it a useful tool. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 05:30, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep High schools are generally considered to be notable, if they are verifiable. The longstanding and general consensus at WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES describes this in future detail. TB randley 02:55, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for my usual reasons. Verified secondary school. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:45, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
