Assess[edit]

Needs more topics, refs, pics .... have a go! Longer reply follows. The first problem that faces an article like this is "Does it tell you anything?". The school has a football team .... now it it didn't have a football team then that would be interesting. Can you find out about the history? What can you find out by puuting the school name into Google? The second problem is notability. There are about 130,000 schools in the US ... why should I read this one? Tell us about Alumni and other claims to fame. I see you are on the list of historic places ... amazing!, but why? Hope tgis helps. If you are still short of ideas then click on some of the schools on the assessment page and steal ideas from the good ones. Victuallers 17:30, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Describe present and historic physical appearance" this looks like the NRHP nomination;
Photo of facade of PHS this may be a PD photo, but we will need confirmation;
Locator map this appears to use a USGS topo as the base map

I added a redirect from Plaquemine Elmentary School. This page itself might have been better placed at Plaquemine High School, with a redirect from here--the renaming seems pretty recent, since the school's own webpage leaves out the "Senior."

I found one notable alumnus by change--I'll start that section, even though it will look out of place on such a short stub. --Hjal 18:53, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
