Older students would have their school profile, and their non-school profile, just like they have their school email address, and their non-school one. It's really not much different.
As to the litigiousness of school administrators around free speech issues, that's something that will have to be worked out with social networking whether schools run their own networks or not.
But when you're dealing with the pre-teenager crowd, I don't think it's as much of a legal issue.
- tptacek 16y agoThe teachers at my kids schools don't all use their school email accounts. None of the students I know of do. No, not super interested in waiting for the schools to figure this out, or helping to push them there. I don't know why this should have anything to do with schools; in fact, getting outside the little social circles inside a school is one of the major wins to this.

- michaelchisari 16y agoThat may have more to do with the lack of interest in email that most kids have, than any anti-institutional preference of 8-12 year olds, though.
- tptacek 16y agoNo it doesn't. The teachers use email incessantly. My kids use email regularly.
