Per WP:NONPROFIT: Organizations whose activities are local in scope (e.g., a school or club) can be considered be notable if there is substantial verifiable evidence of coverage by reliable independent sources outside the organization's local area. Where coverage is only local in scope, consider adding a section on the organization to an article on the organization's local area instead. FunkyCanute (talk) 10:06, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per accepted practice. This high school verifiably exists and its inclusion in our project expands coverage of an area where we need significantly more content. — C M B J 11:22, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Verified secondary schools are invariably held to be notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:25, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment It is a shame that one small set of editors participates in AFD and thinks these schools are inherently notable, while a different small set of editors maintains the notability guidelines WP:ORG and does not share that view, instead wanting schools to meet the same requirements as other organizations of local importance. Edison (talk) 16:39, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It's a shame that those who want to challenge the long-standing consensus that high schools should be considered notable always pick on schools in countries where sources are likely not to be availabe online and/or in English. If we are to abandon this consensus then let's start by nominating some American and British schools for deletion. Phil Bridger (talk) 16:26, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- If you can only write a sentence, then create a list called List of High Schools in Bangladesh. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 23:33, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep – Per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and Wikipedia:Notability (high schools). Secondary schools are typically considered as appropriate to have a stand-alone article. Northamerica1000(talk) 04:15, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
