Model for coffee house

    Our high school is kicking around the idea of developing a "coffee house" at
    the school that would be a combination of the old beatnik coffee houses and
    the modern day Starbuck's. Want a place where students can sit, talk, do
    homework(?) and purchase smoothies, snacks. In addition, student created art
    displays would rotate and there would be a microphone with scheduled student
    poetry reading nights, open microphone for students to play their original
    music, etc.

    We're looking to build a sense of belonging to those groups who don't quite
    fit in with the athletes or the brains, and gives them a place to display
    their talent in a place all students might find fun and mainstream, but a
    bit edgey.

    Anyone have a school with such a "place."

    Thanks, Karen in Sacramento, CA
