Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harbour View Elementary School
One could argue with Wikipedia policy or against it, but closing admins are instructed to discredit arguments against policy. Under |Wikipedia's definition the local nature of sources is not relevant. I don't think it's contrary to  to point out that as you're arguing to keep out school articles as a class (other than schools that are notable on a more than local basis), tons and tons of new articles are flooding Wikipedia on: railroad stations, bus services, small companies, registered historic places, bus stations, video games, episodes of television programs -- and in each category all or nearly all articles that come up at AfD are kept. In some of these categories, the articles aren't even nominated. I think Wikipedia is better off for having articles on -notable elementary schools where we have enough sources to describe at least prominent features of the school. Also, frankly, it seems a bit disingenuous to say early on, ''Has anybody found anything on the school? So far I haven't.'' and then to say later, when ''something'' is found, that even higher standards haven't been met. Someone not familiar with your position might have wasted his or her time trying to meet the standard implied by that earlier statement
