Don't assume that schools with less money have less IT support. There are
some private schools out there with woeful IT managers (not teacher
part-time efforts) and public schools with excellent support. Nowdays every
school has a few Parents with IT skills, and it shows in some smaller
schools that get input from mums and dads.

I don't suppose anyone's written a get-linux-into-your-kids-school HOWTO for
free-time starved parents? :)
