If you are interested in furthering adoption of open source in education you should take a look at arsdigita.org, an organization that our company has sponsored which is doing exactly that.
Even if you don't agree with the goals of our particular organization, I think it is a good model for what any open source company should shoot for. One of the greatest contributions open source has is to broaden access to technology and I personally believe that any open source company that does not sponsor this kind of educational initiative is failing the community.
