That sounds like a neat workaround, pity about the problem it caused 
you :-)

I take it you have usernames like grade 1 and grade2? Would it really 
be a problem to create 40-odd new users once at the beginning of each 
year with usernames like grade1.bill and grade1.mary?

Doesn't look like it'll be much of a problem - in my experience one of 
the first things kiddies learn to write and type is their own name.
