Try Caroline Meeks (elementary schools with low-SES and ESL folks, Sugar 
Labs) Gerald Ardito (middle school, Sugar Labs) or Jeff Elkner (high 
school, Ubuntu) as starting points: http://www.elkner.net/ and 
http://www.solutiongrove.com/marketing/Bio/ and 
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/User:Gardito. They're both geographically 
far from you (Boston/NYC/DC), but might know folks in the neighborhood 
with similar sentiments.

It looks like the SIGCSE conference has a K12 liason (sigcse12-k12 at 
cs.holycross.edu) named John Harrison from Princess Ann High School at 
Virginia Beach, VA -- not necessarily FOSS-specific, but might be able 
to point towards likely groups of teachers who'll be at the conference 
with connections to what you're looking for. There's also the usual 
"blanket email to K-12 CS mailing list" idea, but I'm guessing you're 
hoping for a more focused route. :)
