#16 Elementary school in the 70's in Rhode Island, there would need to be at least 6" of snow for school to be canceled. Unlike today where the mere mention of snow closes a school. Hell...I remember having over a foot drop and still have to go to school. It was a major bummer, but the recesses were wicked fun. Fierce, non-stop snowball fights until the bell. good

Robby,

The same in Northern NJ in the 70's. The fire siren would blow at 6am if there wasn't any school that day due to weather. More than one snowy day was ruined when there was no siren by 6:05

Raymond,

I think they were also used to pull down maps that were hung up very high (usually a bunch were hung together).

They had just installed these my junior year of high school, still remember the day in chemistry where they had us using the Bunsen burners to bend glass. You could tell the kids that were sheltered and the one s who could use tools by who could get the burner lit with the torch igniter (and then there was the kid that took his Bic lighter out of his pocket to light the burner...)
