I am working with a few other teachers to try to change the Clark County School District policy regarding movies. Right now, up through 6th grade we can only show G rated films with parent permission. We are only allowed to show PG movies for grades 7-12, once again, with parent permission.
If you could, reply back with what levels of films you are allowed to watch as well as which district/state you are from, I am trying to get some information together to see if the CCSD policy is strict or standard.
I couldn't find our district policy regarding presentation of movies, but find that ours correlates well to the standard posted above; generally g through PG13, R rated movies need parent permission forms, an offered alternative should parents object, permission from Principal, educational purpose statement, etc. Essentially a bunch of paperwork to deter going forward with it in the first place.
Funny story was that I fairly blas about the whole thing until my third year of teaching English, when we presenting (7 minute intervals!) clips of Zeffirelli's 'Romeo & Juliet'. The part where Romeo climbs out of bed the morning after and shows his white, gleaming behind was cause for complaint from a student, who was deeply offended. So after that I became a lot more cautious with the material I screen or use for teaching purposes. I tend to send out a blanket form at the beginning of the year if I know of anything I am going to use that may contain difficult material, though if I can teach the point with something milder, I will use the milder option. Which is a shame, because that scene in 'True Romance' between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken is an excellent acting example. :)
I did find the following piece from our district handbook (Hillsborough County, Florida) regarding student productions and publications. I think it articulates well the general purpose behind an unthinking and blanket ban policy on difficult material, though in places I find myself tweeking at it; it does address how conversations can be started on a case-by-case basis. Theatrical productions count as a school produced publication/production.
"The Board reserves the right to designate and prohibit any material contained in school sponsored publications, productions, or any other expressive activities occurring in a curricular activity that students, parents, and members of the public might reasonably perceive to bear the imprimatur of the school when such material does not reasonably serve the pedagogical interests of the school. Such materials include, but are not limited to, those which:
I seem to remember hearing at some point that showing R-rated films required advance permission from the School Board for each specific film (aside from Schindler's List, which the Board pre-approved for showing in some high-school social studies courses subject to parent permission), but I can't find that now in the written policies that my school's media specialist has provided to me. Maybe I heard wrong, or maybe the policy has changed.

Strolling or driving through one of our seven National Register Historic Districts, you'll discover front porches as stylish as the living rooms within, giant ferns swaying in the breezes and ancient live oak trees and magnolia trees forming canopies over many streets. Mobilians are active (they have to be, with all the delicious food around) so you'll likely encounter runners, folks walking their dogs or families riding their bikes. Everyone comes ready with a smile and a wave and soon, you'll feel like you fit right in.
You may happen upon one of many street parties held throughout the year, with white linen tablecloths, lanterns swinging from branches, live music or even locally owned food trucks. Picnics and lawn parties pop up during 5k races and marathons with routes that wind through the historic neighborhoods or you may encounter themed bike-rides (Tweed, zombies and home-brewed beer, to name a few), community gardens and library nooks (where neighbors can drop off or borrow shared books for free).
Each district has a unique character that reflects the city's growth during the 19th and 20th centuries.
