What a surprise this is! I am one of several students that work on the wakefieldhs website, and I've known about this whole situation for a while. Frankly, I think it's the school's fault for not buying up.org,.com, etc. There are plenty of other proxy servers; this kid is just being punished because the administration can punish him.
Also, what do you think of the website? We put a lot of time and effort into it.
