Delete. Too early to say how, why or whether the place is notable. Eddie.willers (talk) 18:13, 11 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Found a few news references - [2], [3], [4] (I don't know any of those publications, so I can't really say if they satisfy WP:RS). Also this looks like some kind of accreditation (but again, I don't know it it's notable). -- Boing! said Zebedee 12:02, 12 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Nonnotable, and the article (and the website too) are woefully lacking in any specifics: how big is it, what ages does it serve, what are the admissions standards? It is called a "school"; LibStar thought it was a "college"; and yet the photos on the website show young children, and the schedule shows classes for all ages from 4 to adult. I could find no indication that the school is accredited (the "accreditation" link Zebedee found is just registration with the Better Business Bureau), and in fact they have their own private program for "accrediting" their teachers. The only media hits are in a small very local paper and a freebie Montreal arts magazine. All in all, it seems to be just a place with with a few classes in music, art, and theater. --MelanieN (talk) 01:26, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as spam. Regardless of the fact that they granted permission for the material through OTRS, copying their web pages with no critical commentary is just not on. Additionally, there is only some scant local coverage. That's not enough to meet notability. -- Whpq (talk) 13:07, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
