    Singles could work for the 90s, but I don't really remember how much cursing there is.

    Rocky IV could be a good one for the 80s with some good talking points, but I'm not sure the unintentional comedy would come across to your group.

    Lean on Me could be another good 80s movie. Can show poverty and how one man tries to change a culture in a school.

    I like Blazin' Saddles for the 1870s.

    Education and poverty is not teachable?

    I agree with LTL about Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

    It Happened One Night could be one for the '30s.
