youtube

I am a high school history teacher, and I have found many good youtube videos that would compliment my classroom environmnet well. Unfortunately, my school has blocked the use of Youtube at school. They made it available for the first time ever about a month ago, and within about a week they shut it down again. Apparently the school doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the traffic that it brought on. It is a shame that a learning tool as accessible as youtube isn't made available in our classrooms. What is the solution to this problem?
