Bjoern,
Check out the import guidelines [1] to understand how to import the schools
without unsetting the community. Look at the import catalog for examples of
other imports for examples of how to document your proposal.

One suggestion, don't suggest a mechanized import. They often don't work as
well as intended. Instead consider using tools like the Tasking Manager to
import in small steps.

Good luck,
Clifford
