I have a wikipedia search, my email, a dictionary.com search and a few other applications along with the built in google search. It can do all of the things that schoolr can do, as well as more, and it allows you to take away anything that you really don't use. I prefer it much more for just that reason, everything you need and nothing you don't. I recommend it to everyone, it only takes a minute or to to set up. igoogle.com Personally I use an igoogle customized homepage.

Basically Schoolr comibines searches for google, wikipedia, dictionary, translations, and citations all in one easy to find space. Personally my browser is always open so a “homepage” is fairly redundant, and I use Quicksilver to conduct all my searches, but this is probably a good place to send students.
