[edit] April, 2008 cleanup
Greetings editors!
I just cleaned up this article a bit. Specifically I took out a lot of flowery language that is inappropriate for an encyclopedia article, and I removed a lot of non-notbale staff and students (current and former. I also took out some references to "current activities that were current a year or two ago. In general, Wikipedia is not a place for listing these things.
Before editing, take a moment to check out WP:SCH#WNTI. This is an entry on the WikiSchools Project page highlighting what not to include in school articles. Check it out, but allow me to summarize:
1. These articles are not home pages. Do not include current "goings on", unless they are notable for all time. The football team winning regionals is not notable in the long run. The band winning a state competition is notable.
2. Do not include the names of staff and students, unless they are notable for something beyond being affiliated with the school. The person who hits the winning home run to win the state championship is not notable. A teacher winning a national award is notable.
3. Alumni are generally notable if they can have an article about them written here at Wikipedia. Others are usually not notable enough to fulfill the requirements of WP:N.
3. To avoid having people swoop in and delete your edits, always include a properly cited reference. References need to be reliable, third party, neutral sources that can be checked. With some exceptions, the school's web page is not acceptable as a neutral source.
