The district is miniscule. There are two teachers at the elementary level. This is not a major or significant institution. All the sourcing is to the organization's own website. There are not really adequate 3rd party sources that give us enough clear coverage of school district to justify having seperate articles on them in absolutely every case.

  • Keep. This is a school district that includes a grammar school and a high school (operating in a single building) and serving an area covering 258 square miles. The district once had > 500 students but has shrunk as much of the population moved elsewhere. The district includes a historic school building dating to the 1920s and a 1,300-acre school forest along Lake Superior, implemented a novel remote learning program in the 1980s to deal with its geographic remoteness, and has also served as a community library and recreational facility. I have added some additional sourcing such that this now passes WP:GNG. Cbl62 (talk) 00:54, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Thanks to Cbl62's fine WP:HEY work, this article is now sourced well, meeting WP:GNG. Cheers! — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 18:52, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep When this was nominated it was a stub with only primary sourcing. It's now improved into a decent article thanks to Cbl62. However the sourcing is such that you can make notability arguments which go both ways - it's still reliant on primary sources, but there's a good article from Detroit and some local coverage as well. This is probably the most "neutrally" notable article I've ever come across (because it depends on whether you think some hyper local sources count towards WP:GNG), but given the topic should be completely non-controversial, I'm going to default to a weak keep.
