#'  Classroom example
#'  The (fake) data in schools.txt represent a randomized experiment of two different
#'  reading methods which were randomly assigned to third or fifth grade classrooms,
#'  one per school, for 20 different schools. The experiment lasted 4 months. The
#'  outcome is the after minus before difference for a test of reading given to each
#'  student. The average sixth grade reading score for each school on a different
#'  statewide standardized test (stdTest) is used as an explanatory variable for each
#'  school (classroom).
#'
#'  There are main effects for
#'  stdTest, grade level, and treatment group. There is a random effect (intercept) to
#'  account for school to school differences that induces correlation among scores for
#'  students within a school. Model selection included checking for interactions among
#'  the fixed effects, and checking the necessity of including the random intercept. The
#'  only change suggested is to drop the treatment effect. It was elected to keep the
#'  non-significant treatment in the model to allow calculation of a confidence interval
#'  for its effect
