Shouldn't this school be considered a high school instead?

How is it a secondary school if it includes grades 8-12? A secondary school is either for grades 7, 8 or 9-12. This school is not properly named right. It is a high school, not a secondary school. A high school is a school attended after elementary school. Is Eric Hamber attended after elementary school? Yes! Therefore it is a high school. (69.117.20.128 - talk)

It's probably because of the different systems in the world. The school is officially named Eric Hamber Secondary School. Other schools in our area, such as Winston Churchill Secondary and Magee Secondary provide the same grade level education and are also titled "Secondary". And if you actually looked at their Wikipedia articles, you would find that Secondary school and High school both refer to Secondary education.-- Tydus Arandor ^(talk) 19:37, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Logo hamber.gif

Image:Logo hamber.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Should the list of clubs be formatted into a list?

With all those commas in the 'Clubs' heading, it's hard for basically anyone to see anything. Should they be formatted into a list instead?

I updated the clubs section to the most recent version on the website, but it's still quite long. Unfortunately I don't think a list would make it much better, as that would be a very long list. Perhaps using | would help? CocoaPuff310 (talk) 22:45, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removed refimprove tag

The tag was added in January 2012 without any discussion. I sourced some citations where I could, but I didn't really see an issue in the first place. Feel free to tell me where/why I'm wrong. Also, I didn't wait for approvals first because this page doesn't seem to be very active. CocoaPuff310 (talk) 17:34, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Eh shouldn't this be a lower ranking for importance?

I stumbled across the page and it seemed to contain a lot of really trivial and almost unnecessary information... and it gets a "mid" ranking, when education is supposed to be lower.

That's my opinion.
