The inclusion of non-notable schools is not, by itself, the problem.
There you go using the N-word again.
The real problem we have on Wikipedia with school articles, in my opinion, is the amount of vandalism they receive relative to the number of editors repairing them. Since school-aged kids are a main source of vandalism this isn't a surprise. However since this vandalism often takes the form of derogatory remarks about living people it's a serious matter. Reducing the number of school articles which aren't being watched would help.
If a school article continues to be vandalized even after you have blocked that school's IP range, then the school is probably more widely known than you thought. Try semi-protecting it for a while.
Vry good point, and one which I had not thought of. ~~~~
