- Keep- Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes#Schools, high schools need normally only exist (as degree-granting institutions) which come under Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Its entry at Chicago Public Schools, and an overview by the Chicago Tribune. Dru of Id (talk) 02:16, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. In addition to the general consensus that public high school are presumptively notable, actual coverage exists. Start with the series of broadcasts that WBEZ did about the establishment of this school in 2005.[1][2][3]. And here's a very recent story from The Chicago Reporter. [4]. Note, however, that the current text of the article (especially the "History" section) may contain some substantial copying from the school's website, which needs to be cleaned up.--Arxiloxos (talk) 02:30, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. Consensus is that verified secondary schools are notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:25, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but adding {{copyvio}}: Article is a direct lift from http://www.uplifths.org/about_us/history.jsp plus http://www.uplifths.org/about_us/mission.jsp for the usual missionspam/visionspam. Legitimate high schools are presumed notable (WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES); and this is a Chicago Public Schools high school, so its position as a real high school is unquestioned. --Closeapple (talk) 02:47, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - verifiable high school and no reason to suspect that, with sufficient research, that the necessary sources cannot be found to meet WP:OR. TerriersFan (talk) 18:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
