Oh my, that is a tantalizing menu! GNU/Linux
AND philosophy!
Starting, as you are, to eke out a brand new project
that's never been attempted before, I can't imagine
how exciting all this must be for you.
Seeing that no one has ever attempted such a thing
before, it's not as if you can google, say "linux
teenagers teach" and get any good feedback from that
quarter.
No doubt the childrens' parents will be thrilled that
you have volunteered hundreds of their dollars towards
your course, in the form of laptops that eventually
someone will have to reinstall Windows on, or elsewise
retrieve from their (as has been noted in this thread)
recently-bricked state.
Of course, in the Garden City (Newton, MA), mere
hundreds of dollars are a pittance, on a par with bus
fare, but I don't think buses run in Newton anymore,
do they?
Best of luck,
OH! I almost forgot:
