Any kid with any smarts at all can do direct ip to proxy with no effort. If they want to keep the kids out of the porn, then the system must be airgapped. No real world internet connection. Perhaps go do google searches and cache all the stuff they would be likely to need for class room assignments, then break the connection and tell them it is on the computer... go find it.

So ask (1) who is requiring this or (2) who is paying for this? Then ask, what is their approved solution that they are willing to approve and/or pay for? If this is genuinely not being pushed by some government mandate, I would question DNS as being too simplistic. Just recently the TV news here had a story about parents show were shocked, shocked to discover their kids school-issued computers allowed them to use Google Hangouts, which the kids were using for inappropriate messages. The idea that you can block all inappropriate content by a simple method like what DNS servers you use, seems naïve to me. So, should the DNS servers let you go to Wikipedia, or not? CNN is dishonest media, should that be blocked? What about RT? Or, for an example of what happens when you try to censor the Internet by blocking IP addresses, look at the news stories about Cogent blocking Cloudflare IP addresses associated with Pirate Bay but also causing collateral damage to other sites sharing those IPs.
