Well, a disclaimer here. I don't pretend to be an expert :-)

I just say that I have a related experience and actually I'm currently working 
on the same direction as you do.

It would be very interesting to get eveybody of us connected. This way we 
could plan ahead, and even serve as a profesional-level consulting base for a 
school board that would consider a move to Linux.

May be, later we could move into advocacy with our global knowledge of the 
education system and the issues at stake.
