    No, absolutely no...  Python advocacy is necessary in this venue !

    Chris has a great idea here... but I think more along the lines of 
an app that benefits school admins in terms of networking registration, 
accountability, or messaging. In other words, if I understand Chris 
correctly, make the script / app  necessarily useful to the admins you 
are trying to advocate to, so that the students reap the benefits of 
having the interpretor installed and ready...?!?

    Great idea...
