EXCUSE ME?! Isn't Wikipedia supposed to be NPOV? This sounds like it's all impartial, copied-from-website-and-writeups-by-everyone-but-the-students writing. I'm sorry if I'm adding my own bias to this, but I take offense to half of the descriptions in this article. In addition, the HGM isn't even unique to NoHo, it also includes 3 elementary schools and one middle school all in LAUSD.
I personally find something really wrong, but mostly factual, with this article, so I hope nobody takes offense to my editing it. Applegoddess 02:10, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] rewrite
my apologies to the people who wrote it before. i had to rewrite it. also posted in the HGM livejournal community that anyone should feel free to edit it. I think it'll be a much better article when written by people who have direct experience with the program, and not by someone who seemed to be pulling everything out of his/her....yeah.

Looks like some of the students think Wikipedia is just a game. These juvenile edits about intersession work and number of APs need to stop.
[edit] new art history teacher
since this hasn't been touched in a while, i'm sure nobody will mind if i add Ms. Lemvo, the new art history teacher at noho, as soon as i find out what her first name is
[edit] Vanity edits
Two people (presumably the users of the accounts that made the edits) have added themselves to the notable alumni section. No offense intended; but I haven't heard of either of them, and I doubt most others have as well. Notable alumni should be--well--notable. Just because you've graduated and gotten a job, it doesn't mean you've gained any fame. I'll leave them up for now, because I'd like to see some other input on this first. 404notfound 02:53, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Creating a new page for North Hollywood
I don't think that the section on the North Hollywood Highly Gifted Magnet should be the largest part of the entire article about the HGM. There are many more HGMs in the country and the page that should be for all of them should not be dominated by information about a single school. I think that we should move the NoHo HGM section to its own page, perhaps North Hollywood HGM or North Hollywood Highly Gifted Magnet, and should be merely linked to from the main HGM page. I will let the people who spend the most time putting time into the NoHo section move it, but if no one bothers I will since it does need to be moved.
