I'd need to know more about your security goals/threat model.
Are you worried about people breaking in via the internet?
Are you worried about kids beaking out and causing grief for others online?
I assume (well hope) that the school administrative network (i.e.
grades/etc) is seperate, or is it part of this network?
The external box will run a mail server to proxy email? If so are you using
sendmail/postfix, or?
What are the desktops running?
What is the purpose of this network? Teach kids to find info online? run
educational programs? Access to email?
Etc, etc. I can't really give you much help without sitting down, I suggest
you maybe hire SuSE for an hour or two of consulting, it will save you a
lot of grief in the long run.

Hello,
my name is Christoph and I attend a business school. Our school administrator formed a working group for network and computer related problems. Our first task is to review the existing security system and to improve it or create a new one. I worked on a new network design for the school network, and I first created a draft. The First version of the draft can be downloaded from http://www.festlinfo.at/schoolnetwork.jpg. Would somebody be so kind and make comments on it or critisize it because I want to improve it. I know a little bit about computer security and I want to learn more. I excuse for being off topic, but I wanted some experts to review the draft.
Have a nice day,
Christoph Pernsteiner
