What are you using for your existing proxy? I've used clarkconnect in 
the past on a seperate box, but now I'm using ipcop.
Both can be setup as transparent filters, but ipcop(with the cop plus 
addon) lets you schedule automatic blocklists for free.
I believe Eric has also done some dansgaurdian/squidgaurd work in k12 as 
well.
