This is an unnecessary disambiguation page. Neither school mentioned has an article itself and is therefore not-notable. TM 00:35, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This AfD makes no sense to me. The article was created as a redirect due to a decision at AfD. Then an editor changed it to a disambiguation page because there is another school of the same name. I have no argument with either of these edits, both are appropriate. "Unnecessary" is not a reason for deletion. You could argue that anything is unnecessary, it depends on the purpose. Disambiguation pages do not have the same requirement of notability as articles.

  • Keep it's a proper disambiguation page since both "red links" (the name of the schools) are backed up by the requisite blue links where you can find information on the school. (I couldn't find policy on disambiguation pages with only red links, if I'm wrong please ping me and let me know.) SportingFlyer talk 05:58, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: both schools merit a redirect to their school district or local area; as there are two, it needs to be a dab page. No problems of any kind, absolutely standard treatment. PamD 09:42, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This title would be a valid redirect to either blue link here if there were only one - as there are two, we need a disambiguation page. This helps readers - if a reader has typed in this title, we tell them where on Wikipedia they can find information on those topics. There would be no benefit at all to deletion, and it would hinder readers. Both entries meet the guidelines at MOS:DABMENTION. Boleyn (talk) 11:17, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I can see that I was mistaken about policy on this. I am withdrawing my nomination.--TM 11:56, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
