The article did not indicate why this school should be considered notable (elementary schools generally aren't). I have moved the page to your user space, at User:Pchittg1/George M. Davis Elementary so you will have access to it -- to build it so that it qualifies for article space, or to use the material for publication on some other website. --Orlady (talk) 20:20, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
George M. Davis Elementary School
editI can tell that you are very fond of this school. The page you have created has some good information and it conveys that fondness. However, that is not enough for Wikipedia. In order to be the topic of an article in Wikipedia, an elementary school needs to be "notable" according to the criteria at WP:Notability and generally also WP:ORG. These are difficult criteria to meet -- most elementary schools are deemed to be non-notable. --Orlady (talk) 03:48, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
