This is a sorry tale and I understand the feelings of Ruth as she is
ignored for all the work she has done.
I suppose that legally there is no redress. I suppose some kind of
disillusionment is inevitable but what can she do? Having faced a similar
scenario (in my own mind at least) I can suggest two alternatives: 1 the
professional approach. Complete the site to the highest standards, make
sure your name is all over it, get it publicised, collect any plaudits and
favourable comments in a "boasting book" and show the world that your
libour school and by implication YOU are BRILLIANT!
2. Stop production now. Replace the indexpage with a message such as this:
It is with great regret that we announce the [school name] site has closed,
due to lack of support by [the principal or the management]. This is [your
name] signing off. hope you enjoyed it while it was here. Comments should
be sent to [principal's e-mail address]
Then publicise this on as many listservs as you wish.

Personally I've dreamt of doing 2 but have ended up doing 1. I feel the
more virtuous for it.
Am I right? What do others think?
