Thanks to everyone for their help with this issue. I appreciate the feedback and advice. I did find a path to accomplish what I wanted to do for the class puppet shows.<br />
<br />
I just blogged about my experience, if you are interested:<br />

Hi Kevin,<br />
We have limits on file size on our school site now, so I am looking for alternate ways to publish student work too. How about wikispaces? It has worked for me so far for short and even longer video we have made. Some 4th grade students have put their own videos on their wikispace too.<br />
<br />
I want to try out the other ideas here too-thank you.<br />

There are host that offer free web sites to teachers. Google and Lunar pages come to mind. I have some others linked to from: <a href="http://www.opencourtresources.com/mrneedleman/howto/web_sites.html">http://www.opencourtresources.com/mrneedleman/howto/web_sites.html</a><br />
<br />
But it sounds like you're more concerned about the tech part than the money part.

It is not nearly as complicated as it might appear. The control panels provided by most hosts make the management and set up quite simple. Besides, if all you want to do is host video files, you'd only need to upload them to the shared server, then have the school's web master put in a little snippet of code to embed the video on the school's website pointing to your video file.<br />

<br />
Of course, once you see the ease with which the control panel installs free open source web software, you might want to set up a little WordPress Blog. There are scores of scripts you can install with a few keystrokes and mouse clicks: blogs, wikis, discussion boards, galleries, etc.<br />
<br />
Once I made the plunge, I felt like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz when she discovered the man behind the curtain. Having discovered the ease and power, I persuaded our school superintendent to give it a try for our school website. Suddenly all the obstacles disappeared. If we can conceive it and it adheres to school policy, we can do it.<br />
<br />
I use Hostgator, but there are many fine providers out there.<br />

I don't control the keys the tech closet (not literally). In other words, I am not the webmaster of our school site and I have been told we don't have space for video on our server.<br />

I suppose I could set up my own website and host things from there -- I think that is what you are suggesting. I rely on some of the other hosting sites (such as Google Vid) for ease of operations and to make my life easier. I don't really want to become a webmaster.<br />
<br />
What sites for web hosts do you recommend?<br />

I appreciate the advice and it is something for me to ponder.<br />
