Hi Linda,
Please just be sure all animals in your care are watched carefully by you. I know EJ and others addressed this already, but I can't stress it enough. The sulcata who was housed in a tank in the classroom next to mine was the object of much abuse even though the teacher had a hands off policy.
Also be sure to check with the regulations regarding reptiles. Some districts won't allow any due to salmonella concerns, some let you keep anything, and some require veterinary certification as to health.
Good luck with your search.
