Deletion of Midlands School District, Arkansas

Comment: In past AFDs, we have redirected or merged countless articles about elementary schools to their school districts. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes says "Schools that don't meet the standard typically get merged or redirected to the school district that operates them (North America) ..." Past practice has thus implied de facto notability of school districts. Various states have hundreds of school districts with individual articles. I cannot recall an AFD which deleted an article about a  public school district. A school district typically satisfies  and  via multiple reliable and independent sources having significant coverage. Some behavior of a school district official which got widespread news coverage should not get undue weight in the article about the district, but that is a matter for the normal editing process rather than deletion
