i attended numerous different schools in the 80’s and 90’s and never saw or heard of one, the teachers would use the office phone when they spoke to my parents. My own kids classrooms have never had one that I have seen and we live on the opposite coast but they have spoken to us on cellphones or more recently through an app.
i’m not doubting you just surprised to hear it’s a thing my parents were split and i was a ‘problem child’ so i ended up going to a different school almost every year and im surprised i never ran into one.
edit: this is like when you learn some people wipe standing up 😂 my wife said her schoolrooms had them and and was shocked none of mine did
Lol it could be one of those logical fallacies where I just noticed that all the classrooms I’ve been in had them and assumed that was the majority of the case and you did the opposite. We need a nationwide poll to sort this out.
Priorities.
