For school presentations, they probably get away with fair use. I don't see a case being made if some kid researches someone, downloads an image from the internet, and includes it in a presentation for class.
That, and I wouldn't want to be the one who files against the kid. Hey, I was young once, and still am.

I know this is really harmless but it is the foundation of the kids' belief that it is ok to just download pics. As if anything they find online is there for the taking.

I think this happens without school projects allowing the inclusion of images obtained off the internet, with or without permission. There's enough encouragement online to share, share, share, and I doubt the fine print stating to only distribute your own stuff and stuff you have permission to distribute gets read by more than a few.
