Danielle,
Where is Hammond High School? I'm enjoying hearing from the different
states. In answer to your request, I've learned that there is no
directory of schools interested in Skyping, although if you Google it,
you'll find some random lists.  I've heard from a few schools across the
country that are interested in a Skyping session:  Arkansas, Montana,
New York and Massachusetts. So far, we've scheduled a Skype session with
the school in Massachusetts for tomorrow. It will be a weather
comparison and contrast lesson between two second grade classes using
the media center as the central location. The schools that responded are
below. I've copied and pasted their emails.
================
"I don't know of a directory but I would be interested in doing such a
project with you."

===================

"No, I don't know of such a list.  I would love to know of one if you
find 
it.  Also, my kids might be interested in Skyping with your kids.  I'm
in 
Arkansas."
"Stephanie Labert" <sdlabert@mvtel.net>

===================
"Please post a hit or notify me off-list if you get a response - I
would love
to hear about it! I had a few responses when I posted a month or so
ago
trying to set up a Skype conference for 9th graders, so there is
definitely
interest. I was thinking about trying to set something like this up. 
Thanks very much,"

"Sarah,
This sounds interesting!
We're a K-6 school of 160 students in rural western Massachusetts.
Skype name: sesskype01

Would love to have our students in contact with others."
