This page has no references and is based completely on opinion. It is merely advertising a crappy school. Im sorry if i have ruined your ego. :above comment by 68.68.183.176 21:11, 17 August 2006 Kappa 14:05, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, I deleted as the article was likely as all a copyvio and was a total advert. I've restored a much earlier non copyvio version in it's place - hopefully that will be better than nada -- Tawker 18:49, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'm sorry about the tone of the comment by 68.68.183.176 above, but the point about advertising and no references is valid. Wikipedia articles have to be "neutral" and "verifiable". If you say "Our small residential community ensures students receive maximum attention in all facets of school life" you are writing from the point of view of the school, not a neutral point of view. Also you have no way to prove this to a skeptical reader. Furthermore it looks like it was taken directly from something published by the school, which makes it a copyright violation.
- I'm sure there is a lot to say about the school, but please try to do it in a non-promotional way and provide external sources for any claims that are likely to be disputed. See the General Tips section of WikiProject Schools and the schools listed on that page which have featured articles (e.g. Hopkins School). Kappa 00:39, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
