Hi @barringer7777 ,
Just reviewed this thread.
Several options since this is for education purposes.
An option here is to consider a very low cost option based on AWS Lightsail ($5 per month starting). It is currently in pre-Beta and plan to release the Beta option soon on AWS(with the production version then likely released several weeks later). But if you are interested in trying it out(and would be great for the project for to get more folks testing it out), it is working on our testing, and can see how to install it here(very simple install process that just takes a couple minutes):

Another thing to consider is we are starting to think about partnering with education/instruction courses to develop customized demos (with the goal of both supporting use in this situation and to compile a set of public instructions sets with companion demos), which is being discussed here:
