At the moment, we use Office 2003 in our building. We really don't have any current plans to upgrade. While Office 2007 has some nice features, those additions really don't justify the increase in cost. In addition, many of our systems would need to be upgreaded to run Office 2007, adding to the total cost.

Do you use alternatives to Microsoft Office? If so, what do you find works best? Do you have any words of advice for other teachers and schools asking these same questions? Feel free to share your thoughts as a comment to this post.

We are rolling out Google Apps for Education next year (maybe next semester) for our students at CLHS... we will continue to offer Office 2003/7 (we have an MS school agreement, and frankly M$ does do some tasks very well that are difficult with free software) and we will also add Open Office to our school wide deployment image for next year... We want to give students a range of choices...
