My first impression is of a well-organised, well-written article.
The second paragraph of the History section has no references.
This is also true of the latter parts of the third and fifth paragraphs.
There is further uncited information in later paragraphs. You wrote the article and must have got the information from somewhere.
What is a GPA?
Apart from the referencing, the prose is excellent and I am satisfied that the article meets the GA criteria in other respects. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:29, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your review, it’s been a long wait! I will address the unsourced material you’ve pointed out. The vast majority of the history information comes from the book by Michael J. Budds, so I will add more inline citations. “GPA” stands for Grade Point Average; it is widely used in the America school system. Would linking GPA to Grading in education be sufficient?

I am satisfied with the additional citations and the alterations you have made and believe the article meets the GA criteria. Where you have multiple citations to different pages of the same source, you could use short citations to avoid clutter in the reference section, but making that change is optional. Passing this now.

Curious if anybody knows if Ralston Hill is an alumnus of the school. He got his undergraduate at Mizzou and then attended Oberlin before performing on Broadway, causing me to think he was a music major. Any information is appreciated. Grey Wanderer (talk) 16:13, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
