Requesting Movies
There are three independent steps to requesting/approving videos. All questions regarding the approval of a specific video should be addressed to the principal.
The district video approval form - this is approved by your school principal. Note- you only need to do page two if you have answered no to anything on page one.
Students should have a signed permission slip before showing anything above a G Rating. Keep the permission slips on file for the school year.
Requesting the video through Swank - When you request a video through Swank it will go through an in-app approval process. Once the district pushes "approve" it takes Swank 24-48 hours to make it available in Swank. You should make requests at least 14 days in advance.
