After doing a nationwide search — state by state — and after having found that the Baton Rouge McKinley High School is formally called McKinley Senior High School, it seems that Hawaii has the only school officially named President William McKinley High School other than those that follow Ohio naming conventions. If you noticed, I have made changes to the McKinley High School disambiguation page to reflect this research. I have determined that these findings warrant a move of this confusingly titled article McKinley High School, Honolulu to one that uses the unique official name of President William McKinley High School, in line with the Wikipedia manual of style guidelines. --Gerald Farinas 04:02, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Founded 1865
Someone should look into that date. McKinley was President from 1897-1901. Was there a name change around that time or is 1865 incorrect (maybe 1965)?
I was just going to question that myself, McKinley wasn't president for another three decades. It was named that prior to World War II, and my father is a '61 McKinley grad, so 1965 is out, too. Chris 17:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
