I just graduated from Yorktown High School in Arlington, VA, where I worked with Jeff Elkner. If you're interested in a model school, Yorktown is probably the place to look. They've been using Linux to teach Computer Science for the past few years and went from C++ to Python as the language for the entry level course. It's all very interesting to see this fall through, one may be interested in looking at their site, http://yhslug.tux.org/ The future of open source in schools is upon us!
