Review

A good start. Be sure to read this Wikipedia:Manual of Style (lists). Also, take a look at List of colleges and universities in New Hampshire for an example of a decent way to organize a list like this. That list isn't perfect (I see a few problems with it already), but it is a Featured List, so it was given the community stamp of approval about 2 years ago. So, it's a good place to start.
Make sure the lead paragraph is expanded. For information on that, read Wikipedia:Manual of Style (lead section), which will give you help and pointers in creating the lead paragraph.
Add some pictures from the schools. It might be hard to find pictures of defunct schools, so check google books for some Public Domain (read: really old) illustrations from old books. Read commons:Help:Public domain for more information. A good rule of thumb is that any picture from before 1923 is public domain.
Really good research on these schools! Maybe consider creating articles for each of them?
This has the potential to be a really neat list. Be aware though: someone might try to merge it with List of colleges and universities in Kansas, so be ready with a good argument that this list benefits the encyclopedia as a stand-alone list.
When you're ready for more formal review process, see wp:Peer Review.
