You mean like <URL:http://www.teach-scheme.org/Workshops/#materials>
does for Scheme? [I referred to the TeachScheme! site, rather than
just the HtDP book site, because of their significant experience in
training high-school teachers (~200 of them!) to teach Scheme.]

A similar curriculum for Common Lisp would be *great*, but it would
also be a *lot* of effort...
