Hill Elementary School (Austin, Texas)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Per WP:N and tangentially, WP:NHS, elementary schools are not, unlike high schools, automatically assumed to be notable. This has no sources establishing notability, beyond being one of over 5200 schools to have received a "Blue Ribbon" award. Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 22:17, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unless there's a book actually about the school I'm not seeing anything that isn't considered trivial coverage. Mkdw ^talk 07:16, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Austin Independent School District, the sources provided by SBaker do not seem like substantial coverage to me, since all of them discuss the school only incidentally to coverage of something else - the subject is not the school itself. Were we to build an article based only on what we find in those sources, we wouldn't end up with much. --Cerebellum (talk) 02:45, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Austin Independent School District per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. No strong assertion to notability outside outcomes. Mkdw ^talk 07:15, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
