Comment: Error: There was no comment detected! Please follow the instructions at Template:AfC comment.: Not a bad start, nice work with the infobox but could use a few tweaks. I strongly suggest you read Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines. Also look at WP:SCHOOL's list of "Featured Articles" to see what award-winning school articles look like, to get some good ideas. Also, if you live anywhere near this school, it'd be great to take a picture and upload it.
- Nice work with the category, stub tag, formatting of refs, etc. If at all possible include more non-WP:Primary sources. That is, more references from sources other than the school itself, to provide more outside perspective. Good work your copyediting too. All in all a nice start and would be great with a little refining.
