replies: text: See In & Around College Park.  That, with Woodward Academy History makes practically the whole article a cut-and-paste brochure, so-called "logo" photograph included.  I'm reverting it back to the newest non-infringing version that I can find, per policy posted at Wikipedia:Copyright problems.

message: I can find no evidence that she ever attended this place. She went straight from public school in Plains to public school in Washington, D.C. Unless somebody has some evidence, I will continue to remove this apparent urban legend from the article. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 20:03, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. The Amy Carter article clearly states she lived in Plains, then after her father was elected President attended several schools in DC, including Stevens Elementary, Hardy Middle, and finally the private Holton-Arms School. Apparently, she attended Tri-County High School in Buena Vista, Georgia, for a time, but I can find no reliable sources whatsoever to verify that she ever attended Woodward Academy. In fact, it does not appear that she ever lived in the city of Atlanta, and certainly not during her secondary school years. — Satori Son 13:17, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Amy Carter graduated from Woodward Academy in 1985, it is a fact.  You can call the school and confirm this information.S07051970 (talk) 19:23, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: If it is a fact, it will be published in a reliable source somewhere. We don't care what legends you have heard there or from Woodward grads. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 20:27, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: NY Times added as a source.  Reliable enough?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.111.105.122 (talk) 07:46, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yup. That's all that was ever asked. Now somebody needs to correct the Amy Carter article. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 19:38, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: A little belated — okay, a lot belated — but I've finally fixed the Amy Carter article. Thanks very much for the source. — Satori Son 16:31, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
