I watched it at school too but just once. We all sat in the gymnasium. We also had a magician perform, some type of band, and some other activities over the years. Looking back I think there was always some “special” day right around the corner.

Unrelated, in high school we watched History of the World Part I in World History and our teacher had a piece of cardboard that said “censored” or something that he put in front of the screen during various scenes like “Bishop humps Queen” but allowed the audio to play through.
