Well I would go with the 3600's for indoor and the 1552e for outdoor MESH. I would also do redundant 5508's with 500 AP license, because you might actually get close to the 500 limit. Without surveying and really seeing what you need, your only guessing.
Thanks,
Scott

Just remember with outdoor mesh, your RAP (root AP) will have a wired connection and the MAP's will need constant power.

Sure...better throughput and has the ability to have AC module installed. Most education I have done is with the 3500's and the 3600's. Not many with 2600's but you can also look at that from a cost perspective. The 3600 is a 4x4 where the 2600 is a 3x4. Take a look at the reference guide below.

There is two different ways. If the AP is in local mode, the traffic is tunneled back tot the wlc and from there egress out on the network to the gateway for that subnet. The other mode is FlexConnect in which you can tunnel back traffic like in local mode or local switch traffic so that is dumps out in the switch that it is connected to.
