Coach Carter Impact Academy

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article about a proposed boarding school that never seems to have opened (see website). Nearly all the information on the web about the school post 2011 comes from the WP article. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 16:50, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

things that raised alarms for me: from IP user on the talk page: "I live two blocks from the academy. The wikipedia page contains a few things that are not true. There are not 150 students at this academy, although I do hope that Coach Carter gets there someday. At the present, April 15, 2011, the academy has no students that I can tell, nor has it had any since 2009 when the academy was announced in the Waco Tribune Herald. There is no gym, as the wikipedia page claims, and roads around the academy ARE PAVED. This article speaks of things at the academy in the present tense, as if student life and culture exists and has been established. Wrong. I hope this school works out and it helps kids, don't missunderstand. Whoever wrote this article is doing this prospective school a disservice by making claims and statements that simply are not true." and an edit on the Marlin, Texas page asserting that the school never opened. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 16:52, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - There is no evidence this was ever anything more than an idea. There are no NCES records of this school, the website is dead except for the homepage. Anyone having access to a legal database might be able to clear up some of the confusion. John from Idegon (talk) 16:47, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The school is obviously a figment of soeone's imagination or wishful thinking. Fails WP:GNG. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 03:38, 30 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
