I've seen the same thing in our school. Would that they could solve 
algebra problems as quickly and teach other students as effectively. We 
use Bess at our ISP and Dans Guardian (very versitile) in our firewall, 
but I keep reminding our staff that the only thing that really keeps 
students off inappropriate web sites is alert teachers who really know 
what their students are doing at all times.
