Another idea of how to incorporate YouTube videos in the classroom.
My teacher often uses YouTube videos as a morning "deep thought" to teach my high school class something new, share something unique, or link a video with what we are studying. It is a great way to start the day and it shows students how to use Youtube for educational purposes.

You can also download a free program called "ATube Catcher" at home, capture the video and take it to school on a flash drive. I have found that Real Player still requires an internet connection to play "downloaded" videos. You might also check with your technology support office to see if you can get an unblocking code?

By your admission you are not an educator. I believe the US Code supersedes any policy set my for profit operations.
US Code Title 17 - Copyrights
CHAPTER 1
Sec. 107. - Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use
“…the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is NOT an infringement of copyright.”
We educators do what we can with what we have.
Lighten up.
Another alternative
What about using an internal video portal that is "YouTube" like but controlled in your school's environment?
YouTube at school
The profssional way to go about it, is contact the district tech department and/or teaching and learning department and convince them that Youtube is a valid teaching tool. Then ask them to establish a teacher override that can be used by staff. This is what happened in the Issaquah School District and now staff is able to play youtube videos in class.
And speaking as a tech in one of those ISD schools, please report any student getting around firewalls and other unacceptable use of the computers. Most likely they have signed and agreement along with their parents stating they know the rules. Most of these rules are probably also state law: Public schools, public funds, public laws. Breaking the rules does put the computers, the network the students and technology funding at risk.
