Good question. I had subscriptions to both it and Highlights for Children for much of my childhood.

It has saved my rear end quite a few times. And this can be done with directions, too. I currently have the top half of one home screen on my phone covered with offline directions saved from Google Maps, which were put there to support summer road trips.

Imagined posted:My wife went to a rural high school where the entire graduating class was 30 people. Meanwhile my high school had to use the local minor league sports arena for our graduation ceremony. Same. The ceremony at the end of my freshman year was at our local minor-league baseball stadium (I was in band, we played the ceremony). After that, it moved to our local community college's football stadium until we finally got our own football stadium some time after I graduated. Back at my parents' house are 3 (I think) high school yearbooks, a high school class ring and letter jacket, and 1 university yearbook. (I'm a sucker for rituals and ceremonies.)

Blue Moonlight posted:Not sure how other schools handled it, but mine had the teacher take attendance every period. So they’d schedule the rally :15 into a class period, take attendance in the classroom, and that teacher would escort students to the rally, seating them in a section where they’d take another attendance. Same at my ~3000-student high school. I was also a band kid, so I played for several of them. I was never forced to watch one of the "Every 15 Minutes" anti-drunk-driving events, but I think we did have one at some point.

Arivia posted:what the absolute loving hell did they put you through in american school Oh, this was back in the days before active shooter drills. We only had drills for fires and earthquakes (I lived in California). It's devastating to me that anyone who went through school after me had to deal with gunfire being a real threat, and having to try to prepare for it.

Domus posted:We even had a stupid song about being the smoke-free class of 2000, two triple zero, everyone’s a hero. I remember that song from elementary school, too! I'd forgotten those next two pieces of the lyrics until just now.. We had both this module and DARE. (Fun fact,, I was in the elementary school's class of 1998, but the junior high school's class of 2000.)
