thread_title:  Important Notes Before Editing This Article 

message: Avaknerd, please be careful to keep your own edits to the page un-opinionated (and use correct grammar).  Your new addition to the issues section seemed to be one of anger directed at the school for their recent edits as opposed to a factual statement about the edits.  That being said, the schools behavior on this article has been bad as well, but I think that has been stopped now.  I have moved the issues section back to the bottom of the article, where it was originally placed.  Larzia 17:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misc 

message: Let me add a couple of points.  I have not viewed this wikipedia entry before today (4/20/07), and the only reason I know of its existence is because my sister e-mailed me to say that I was the first member of our family to be mentioned on wikipedia.  The problems that I found with the "issues" section were exclusive to the first paragraph.  
I don't believe in hiding behind electronically created aliases.  If you have issues with Bishop Seabury, please bring them to me.  
Point-by-point: If there is indeed a "rift" between students and parents, it is between some students and some parents.  Not all students and parents feel this way; this should not be perceived as a general sentiment.  Furthermore, the person making these comments has no access to the private financial data relevant to Seabury families and therefore is not qualified to make any generalizations about favoritism toward families with greater financial resources.  Many families with substantial financial resources are greatly involved in school affairs, and many families without substantial financial resources are greatly involved with the school.  We do not express preferential treatment, especially in the classroom.  Finally, the person making these comments does not have access to records of admission or re-admission and therefore is not qualified to make any observations on that account either.  In fact, the opposite of the author's points may well be true.  The phrasing of these comments ("There has been" -- which implies a presentation of fact; "It is known" -- which also implies a presentation of fact) is irresponsible, to say the least.
My hope is that the author of these comments will willingly remove them.  They are slanderous, and the author is guilty of a lack of critical thinking.  As a member of the faculty at Seabury, I seek nothing more than to instill critical thinking skills in my students -- all of my students, regardless of their backgrounds.  Please take a moment to reflect on what you have to say, and please have the courage to identify yourself.

thread_title:  issues 

message: 1.  Whether you think it is important or not, someone (me) thought it was important enough to take the time to create a wikipedia page about it.  That is the point of this site is it not?
2.  Learn to spell.
3.  Tag your comments on the talk page.

thread_title:  Necessary Article 

message: Forgive my bad english.
If you and that Pat person from the school are the only ones who think its important enough to have, why have it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.124.49.158 (talk) 13:21, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Necessary article 

message: Someone has suggested that this article be deleted, without commenting on here.  I have removed that suggestion, as there are thousands of other articles about schools on Wikipedia, and no further reason for deleting the article was mentioned.  I believe the page currently only contains factual information about the school, I believe most of the opinionated stuff is gone now (both good and bad).  Larzia 03:54, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Necessary Article 

message: If someone is willing to take the time to create a Wikipedia page for it... then it deserves it.  That is the idea of Wikipedia, is it not?
