I should say, I'd have no strong objection in this case to changing 
these amenity=school nodes to building=school NODES, but that's a very 
different prospect from deleting them.

Ideally I'd have building=school areas, but it is rarely possible to get 
the shapes on the ground, and Yahoo satellite imagery is a luxury 
reserved for particular urban areas (someone has carefully done this for 
the Cambridge colleges, which looks great).
