Michael, I can't speak for the Shodor people, but they set up this server just for such purposes and are delighted that I'm using it.
To be courteous in my usage, I had my students create their usernames as "lsmsa_[name]_2011," so Shodor knows which accounts are from my school and from which year, and I can ask Shodor to close inactive accounts from my school every few years. [They can see which accounts are active.] Email Shodor and ask. Go to http://www.shodor.org/about/staff/ Jennifer Houchins is the Sage person at Shodor. That page has a link to email her.
