Assessment: Hello all, and thank you for contributing to this school article. I'm part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Schools/Assessment team, and I'm reviewing this page. I'm currently giving it a grade of B on the Wikipedia 1.0 Assessment Scale and an importance of Mid on this importance scale. For information on improving this article, please visit the WikiProject Schools Project Page. My reasoning is as follows: Very sound article covering many aspects of the school. Impressive alumni list although quite a few red links. Could be high?

I've tried to address the specific concerns of Leifern that weren't changed by the person who last posted here. If you see any more examples, please note them or change them. Otherwise I'll pull the flag on Feb 11, 2006 (1 week) under the assumption that all is well! -John

I have updated the article for Columbia High School to try (as best I can) to conform to the standards in the Schools WikiProject.

[edit] Cleanup

A lot of excellent material has been added, but the tone needs to be improved to be more objective - this should not be a promotional article for Columbia High School. For example, it would be ok to write that "the school provides an extensive and diverse curriculum in an effort to achieve high academic standards," but not "the school is in a class of its own," etc. Think newspaper writing. --Leifern 02:11, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Cleanup Tag

A cleanup tag was added to the page after several months. What are the particular complaints? I've read over the article several times, and it seems the POV has been removed. If I cannot get specfics, I will pull the flag in one week on Thursday, April 20th. --Metromoxie 16:00, 13 April 2006 (EST)

Just glancing at the article, it needs a lot of citations added to it. --Strothra 00:43, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Course Listings

Thanks for making academics 2-columns, it was unwieldily. Frankly I don't see the value of having the complete course list here, but whatever.

[edit] Ultimate

I don't know much about the high school or their ultimate team except that we played them last year (they were pretty good), and they're consistently very very good, and it's the high school where the sport was more or less born -- there should be more than a sentence saying that.

[edit] Computer lab

I was a student in the graduating class of 1974. There was a computer lab with an IBM 1130 and two keypunches. The IBM 1130 supported Fortran, RPG, Assembly, Basic, and APL. There was a similar setup at Morristown High School in the same year. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.255.43.8 (talk) 05:42, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
