FWIW, Gateway also has solid midranges and they are usually willing to put together an affordable package deal for school programs that will be easy on your wallet. You might even look into their lightweight stuff that's easier for kids to throw.
As I mentioned above, I bag an Element, and own two others. I REALLY like it as a neutral/understable mid. Highly recommend it as a good first disc mold. I only didn't mention it earlier as it seemed the OP might be more interested in Innova.

Another consideration might be attention span, given the age group. I have found that some/most kids lose interest in the basket after 20-30 minutes and begin playing catch with each other, so be sure to have at least a few 'catch friendly' discs available.
dx wedge was an instant favorite of my niece
This is only my opinion, but as I've been playing for about a year, and have tried a LOT of midranges, I think it's both relevant to new players, and reasonably well-informed.
I got an Atlas a few months back. I don't bag it, because it's not the best disc for... anything.
How old is she? I keep a 155 DX Wedge with the EDGE stamp in the practice bag. Older kids and teens love it.
