Subject: File share/NTFS access help

I'm setting up a system for a non-profit school that has students coming in 
next Tuesday.  Currently setting up the computer lab.

One request was for us to set up a folder structure like this:

Labdata (root of share)
 -ToTeacher (subfolder)
 -ToStudents (subfolder)

Rights should allow -
 ToTeacher folder should allow rights for students to write files to the folder 
but not have access (read or copy) to other student's files in the same folder

 ToStudents folder should allow the teacher to dump assignments into that 
folder, allow students to copy it to their computer, but not allow anyone but 
the teacher to make changes to that file in that folder.

I'd be fine with making two shares instead of just one if that'd help.

Is what I'm thinking about even possible? (ToStudents should be fine, it's the 
ToTeacher folder that I'm concerned about)

What I'm trying to avoid is the teacher having to go to each student's home 
folder to pick up assignments. (20 students, one teacher, multiple assignments 
per day).

I'd just tweak on it until I figured it out usually, but I got stuck chasing 
phantom network issues all day yesterday (poorly terminated network cables for 
the most part), and I'm WAY behind... and I just lost another day because they 
want me at another site tomorrow.

TIA for any help/advice, or if you have a suggestion for a better way to handle 
this, I'd appreciate that too.  Right now, I'm off to add a bunch of computers 
to the domain.
