The author of this article claims that this high school teacher is "notable" but does not provide any evidence to support this. The only claim of significance in this article is that the teacher has "co-written books relating to Engineering, Graphics & Design," and the fact that he is "distantly related to the actress Charlize Theron" does not establish notability per WP:INHERIT.

 * Delete. Patently not notable per WP:BASIC. I see it's been created by an SPA by the way.Asnac (talk) 18:48, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - This person in not notable as a high school teacher. I can find no evidence of awards or other recognition for his teaching.  As an author, co-writing a couple of text books is not notable.  I can find no evidence that this is a widely used teaching text or had other significant impact that would establish notability.  And of course, being distantly related to Charlize Theron is an intesting bit of trivia but that's all. -- Whpq (talk) 14:10, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete As stated above, no real claim to notability or evidence available to suggest he meets WP:BASIC. Qrsdogg (talk) 17:22, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
