The first year that we put up a webpage, we ran into the same sort of problem, except that it was a parent of a team member. We had originaly planned to put a short bio and photo of each team member up. This was nixed so that a predator couldn't associate a name with a face.
This didn't appease the parent, though. Now to be safe, even though that child doesn't go to our school anymore, we ask each parent to sign a release asking for permission to put pictures containing their child on the internet as long as there is no name associated with the child in the picture. We also, just to be safe, ask each child to approve each picture before it is placed on the web. This may sound like censorship or paranoia, but in reality it has helped us to maintain a good relationship between the web team and the rest of our team.
