Human subjects are touchy and usually require a number of protections.
I'm guessing as a matter of course the school district will not allow
human subjects, but it's a guess at the moment - but an educated
guess.

For the record, I have no intention of telling my daughter what to do.
However, she is looking for ideas so I was hoping to present a couple.
I would like to see her do a real experiment (rather than a
demonstration) and that is what she wants to do too.
