Non-notable school, no hits on Google. All of it original research and dubious claims. (Entire section about jennifer.) Acebulf (talk) 17:20, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - contains a high school and the reasons for keeping these are contained at WP:NHS. I have stubbed the page right down to get rid of the objectionable material. I have added sources but, as always what is also needed, is a good search for local sources. Kenyan schools have a poor Internet presence and, to avoid systemic bias, time for such local searches should be given. TerriersFan (talk) 16:38, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep All high schools are notable. As TerriersFan said, Kenyan schools have a poor Internet presence, so more time should be given for local sources to be found. Schools should never be deleted unless they are hoaxes; if schools such as primary schools are non-notable, they should be merged to the nearest locality. The sources added to the article are sufficient to pass Wikipedia:Verifiability, so this article should be kept. Cunard (talk) 18:20, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Comment: I'm somewhat concerned that search from the Kenyan government website returns "Total: 0 results found" for this school. That said, if it can be verified that this school exists, it meets WP:NHS--Shirt58 (talk) 11:08, 25 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - it is not a government school so I wouldn't expect it on their website. Verifiability is demonstrated by the sources in the article, including a whole chapter in a book. TerriersFan (talk) 02:02, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
