From this local newspaper article I can see a reference to a teacher of this school being her 8th-grade teacher, but Google doesn't give any other results. Either way, I'm not sure she went back to speak there, since as far as I can tell, her Twitter and Facebook updates don't mention it and Googling the term "Polina Edmunds" Chaboya Middle School does not return anything.--Jasper Deng(talk)02:13, 16 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
If a reliable source can be found, I'm okay with including what schools she attended. On the other hand, the fact (if true) she spoke to the students at a specific school is a trivial fact and, in my opinion, should not be included in the article. Elite athletes and other accomplished individuals speak at venues all the time. Next we'll be including every donation she's made (see history of Kim Yuna article) or every time she's done a specific triple jump (see Mao Asada article). ~ Kirin13 (talk) 03:39, 16 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
I kinda have to agree. The local newspaper (which I have paper copies of) put a picture of her on the coverpage of last Sunday's issue's local section, but I still wouldn't think it merits mention in here. One thing to note is WP:DUE - most sources are on her as a figure skater, not necessarily her personal life, especially pre-high school. Jasper Deng(talk)07:32, 16 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
