Hi, Will,
Something like this this can already be done with some content management systems. If your school website is built with Post Nuke, for example, maybe a look at http://download.moodle.org/modules/integrations.php will be helpful.
I think the trick is getting Moodle and your system to pull auth info from the same database table, though, and the scheme is not cookie-based. So I might be off-target here...
Best regards,

This, I like!
During the evaluation, the writer moved from being a skeptic, who
believed that Moodle adoption would be an unwise move, to an enthusiastic
supporter of Moodle, despite its relative immaturity as a product. The way
that Moodle encourages instructors to organize materials sequentially and
the tools that Moodle offers instructors and students to encourage regular
student participation in course activities, make it an attractive
proposition as an institutional solution for supporting e-learning. The
claims that Moodle was developed from the ground up with the principles of
social constructivism in mind seem to be justified. The writer was so
impressed with the Moodle approach that he has decided to stop developing
the LMS that he has been using successfully in an intranet environment and
move to Moodle.
