[edit] Platt R. Spencer School
Non-notable elementary school. That's right, I said elementary school. In addition, article has been tagged with "cleanup" since April 2006. No expansion, cleanup, or other improvements have been made since that time. Soltak | Talk 18:41, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom as NN. Death to NN public school articles! RGTraynor 18:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Keep due to hometown namesake that invented Spencerian penmanship. -Seinfreak37 21:33, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

- By that logic, every otherwise nn elementary, middle, and high school named after Martin Luther King, a President, a Senator, or some other notable person would also be notable. Sorry, but I don't buy that argument. Soltak | Talk 22:33, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

- Delete; being named after a notable person just doesn't make you notable yourself. Veinor (talk to me) 21:55, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Inadequate references, so the article automatically fails. Also, no evidence of notability is presented. WMMartin 14:55, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

- I do think the way the article refers to "an institute of primary education" is cute, though: at first the wording fooled me into thinking I was looking at an article about a teacher training college. WMMartin 14:55, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
