“Having streaming access makes learning so much easier for our students. Students watch assigned movies any time, any place, and teachers no longer juggle schedules to avoid needing the same DVD.”

Cathy Gargano

Stoughton Area School District

“The platform has an incredible library for finding just the right movie for the content being taught.”

Tech & Learning Judge

ISTE Best of Show Awards

“We no longer have to worry about teachers trying to stream from sites that are not allowed by our district. Teachers can easily show movies in the classroom or assign them to students.”

Heidi McCurdy

Edward Little High School

“Teachers in our health, English, and foreign language classes are accessing all of the titles.”

Christie Sylvester

Prospect High School

“The catalog has been a great resource for classes such as History in Film. Teachers are able to assign a portion of a movie when students miss work; it is so easy to clip a film and add it to Google Classroom.”

Tonya O’Boyle

Cameron High School

“Swank has greatly improved teachers’ use of movies with their instruction! Teachers pair videos with books, history lessons, science lessons, and often in film classes. Without Swank, our jobs would be so much more difficult.”

Christine Szeluga

Cranford Board of Education

“As a school that serves students experiencing poverty, allowing students to view the film independently on their school-provided device at no charge helps us create a more equitable learning opportunity.”

Can administrators control which films teachers and students can access?

Each school’s portal starts with a curated collection built around the films and educational content most useful to K–12 instruction, with the ability to customize additional titles specific to your school’s needs. Administrators have full visibility into what’s being shown on campus, so they can support teachers while keeping clear oversight of classroom content.

Can we try the platform before we commit?

We’ll connect you with a Swank K-12 expert for a personalized walkthrough tailored to your school or district’s subjects, programs and goals. Since royalties are paid on every film shown, we aren’t able to offer self-serve trials, but we can provide content samples to test on your devices.
