This happened to me in middle school. I forget what site it was, but it was a legitimate site (something like Wolfram MathWorld).

My school, however, used the "Bess" filter -- according to Wikipedia, this is/was later known as "Secure Web SmartFilter EDU". I believe the exact quote was "Educational Material".

I find it odd that the filters are so similar, given that, according to Wikipedia, the filters are unrelated.
