Blue Valley Board of Education Policy 4600
When commercially rated videos are used, written parent permission is required if the student is younger than the rating.
Guideline 1: Ratings of Videos
Teachers should refer to the established video rating when selecting commercially-rated
videos for instruction.
6th-7th grade classrooms may view G-rated videos without parent permission
and PG-rated videos WITH parent permission for instructional purposes.
8th grade classrooms may view G-rated videos without parent permission and
PG- and PG13-rated videos WITH parent permission for instructional
purposes.
If a rating is not assigned to the video, DVD, or other electronic media, the teacher
should refer to the Criteria Checklist for Learning Resources before using the resource.
