The result was Convert to a disambiguation page. Shortly after I submitted my vote, I realised that additional consensus is not necessary and a disambiguation is better than a stub article. SwisterTwister talk 02:01, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bringing this article on grounds of WP:GNG. Content on page is standard "viatal statistics" of a elementary school. Already verified that there is no special citation/award for this individual school therefore this article can be deleted in favor of being merged to Allen Independent School District, of which this school is a part of. Standard sources on the web of rankings/location/news blotter that don't contribute to the notability of the article Fair Dislosure: I grew up in Allen and can assert that this individual school is no more notable than any of the other 16+ elementary schools that don't have a individual article.

- Convert to disambiguation page and link it to Allen Independent School District, Berea City School District, and any other district that has a school of this name (although these will likely be named after a different person named Ford). This would be a simple redirect per WP:OUTCOMES were there just one viable target. --Kinu t/c 05:32, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Convert to disambiguation page - I agree with Kinu, middle schools will mainly receive news coverage for "event listings" and anything related. Middle schools have rarely been considered as notable and this page would be of better use as a disambiguation page. I should note that I am willing to perform the change.
