Browsing the web today, I saw a few references to a D&D Afterschool Kit. Found a source page and didn't see anything in the forums about this (sorry if I missed it, my search was a bit quick). On the Wizards' D&D for Educators page, they talk about the D&D Afterschool Kit:
After you submit the request, you should get a kit in 3-6 weeks.
Just thought it was interesting. I do have an education degree to be a teacher, but ended up not pursing that as a career. Still things in the education realm do still perk my ears sometimes.
I didn't know that they had an educators page, with a link to resources on teaching kids grades 4-8 about adventuring D&D.
Sorry if this isn't the place for this kind of post.

The D&D Afterschool Kit contains everything you need to start a D&D club at your school or library:
There is no cost for qualifying organizations. If you are a representative of the following organizations, you may request a kit sent to your organization’s address: libraries, schools, community centers, or other enrichment organizations (scouting, alternative learning centers, etc.).
- One (1) copy of the recently released D&D Starter Set: Dragons of Stormwreck Isle
- Instructions and guidelines for club organizers
- A quick demo and learn-to-play guide for Dungeon Masters
- Easy-to-read character cards
- A poster to help promote your club
After you submit the request, you should get a kit in 3-6 weeks.
