If you want to be an active part of the solution, consider signing up for TEALS: http://tealsk12.org http://tealsk12.org. In brief, you get to teach a high school computer science course without quitting your day job. Founded by a passionate guy who just happened to be at Microsoft, and right before he quit to incorporate a non-profit, a senior VP heard about the program and worked to get it official sponsorship. Although the small staff is funded by Microsoft, volunteer teaching staff is from all over.
edit: The staff has grown to include a handful of region managers. Removed an incorrect parenthetical from my post.

Based on the questions I have seen, many of the question are about quirky gotchas of the java language and have nothing to do with writing useful code. Python or Ruby would be a way better choice in my opinion.
