I would imagine the teachers at a school are aware of what the school administration does as far as internet censorship.

You would be surprised. Not saying that this particular school is like this, but some school administrators treat their teachers like peons and brandish their mighty Ph.D and Ed.S degrees to prove that they know best.

You give public school teachers far too much credit. The teachers were probably unaware, but the administrators were. The political assignment was probably part of the required curriculum, so the teachers had to assign it, not knowing that the conservative view points on many hot button issues were inaccessible by the students. This is soft censorship, subtle, but potentially effective at indoctrinating ideals.

It's still just conjecture. There could be 100's of explanations of how/why this occurred, and intentional indoctrination by the teacher is one of the least likely to be true.
