There have been quite a few great articles on how public schools are implementing Linux desktops and Open Source throughout their campuses and finding success. There is even a site that gives you a lot of resources on how to get this done. They are using Open Source counterparts to the typical licensed software provided by 3rd parties and Microsoft to get their work done. Much of this has been in part to the volunteer geeks in the Linux world. Could this be the generation that fosters the planted seed that becomes a Linux revolution?
