Important Note:

The link above is a link to an online copy (stored in Yahoo's search archives) of one of Mr. Todd Thompson's bogus SVHS webpages he set up on verizon.net, a private internet service provider.

These private website pages were up, viewable and available on internet, complete with unauthorized pictures of past and present SVHS students, until mid-afternoon on Thursday, October 23, 2008.

Mike Rutherford, Assistant Superintendent of Wayne County Schools, had Mr. Todd Thompson take down the actual webpages during the school day, after 6th period, on Thursday, October 23, 2008.

Mr. Rutherford stated that "they" checked over the summer to make sure the private bogus website was down.

During a three-hour meeting in May 2008, when asked about the seizure & return to parents of all unauthorized photos of students, Gary Adkins told the SVHS LSIC Chair and SVHS Principal that Mr. Todd Thompson, via phone, assured him they had all been destroyed.

If, indeed, Mr. Thompson re-loaded the pages and re-activated the site, besides obviously lying to the Superintendent of Schools, that constitutes both re-offense of WVDE & Wayne County Safe & Acceptable Use of Internet policies and direct insubordination, which are both cause for termination.

Not only was he not suspended, pending termination, on Thursday - he was not even disciplined - and again reported for work at SVHS the next day.

WHY IS HE STILL IN A SCHOOL?

WHY IS HE STILL EMPLOYED?

"As nightfall does not come at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight when everything remains seemingly unchanged. And it is in such twilight that we must all be aware of change in the air -- however slight -- lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness." - William O. Douglas, Justice, Supreme Court Of The United States

"The foundation of a democracy is an informed public, which obviously means an honestly informed public." - James Hansen, Ph.D., NASA Goddard Institute For Space Studies & Professor, Columbia University

"Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine, American Patriot

"To attempt to reason with those who have renounced logic as a means of argument is as futile as to administer medicine to the dead." - Thomas Paine, American Patriot
