Your sandbox
editI changed/updated some things in your sandbox. You may want to add an infobox such as this one to make the article more clear at a glance. Go Phightins! 16:43, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
Hey Cody, good start. You might consider a section on the school's history - when was it founded, have there been changes over time, etc. Try to find as many independent sources as possible (and make sure your footnotes are after the punctuation, not before).
