All I'm suggesting is that you start with Sugarizer School Box item 1 and then proceed to item 2 when it is complete. BTW, you may find some materials for packaging an image in https://github.com/iiab/iiab-factory/tree/master/box/rpi We have begun to upload rpi images to the Internet Archive,

Speaking of reliability, we have experienced a number of occasions when mongodb was corrupt on the rpi, perhaps through disorderly shutdown. Perhaps you can sort that out. I would also recommend focusing on the rpi install before turning to Heroku or AWS as most users are without an internet

This is exactly how the xsce server works so you may get valuable help from that community (xsce or iiab). A continuing issue is performance of the server in a classroom or school. One metric is the number of simultaneous connections the device can support (a classroom of 40-60 is not
