How clustered are you thinking?  MOSIX?  That would be 133t, but would need
some homework to set up...

That might require more of our current router than it can handle, but we've 
wanted to upgrade the router, this could be our incentive to do so...

We've talked about splitting the existing network into 3, classroom, staff
and volunteer nets.  There should be firewalling between each network.  The
volunteer net might be an RFC 1918 network until we can move to a new location
and re-string the network, allowing physical separation of the networks and
letting them interconnect only via routers with firewalling rules.
