Political story ideas

I would like to focus on the President Obama speech from the 8th and Jeff Williams' rally of angry parents to prevent the speech being shown at elementary schools. The speech was not shown at the Pullman elementary schools, and many parents kept their kids from school that day to watch the speech. The importance here is not the actual speech, but more the role of the schools for events such as this. Is it a judgement call of school officials to show/not show such public speeches? Is it a policy? What will happen in future events similar to this? At what point can we draw a line between what children deserve to know about what's happening in their country versus feeding them some sort of propaganda?
