Here are a couple of links that might be helpful:

Over here not far from where I live there is a school in Rockledge
called St. Mary's. Their entire computer lab is running on really old
hardware and they are taking advantage of the LTSP (linux terminal
server project, which I put for the benefit of others that may be
reading this and are unaware of LTSP). I believe that they are using
either the debian educational distro, or maybe by this time using
edubuntu.
Hope some of this helps, You were right about finding specifics, it is
pretty difficult to narrow down case studies that pertain to your goals,
even though word of mouth we've all heard about schools doing it.
