It was very strict back then. Teachers would paddle students or even tape their mouths shut with 2" masking tape.
Our days were filled mostly with education, unlike today when students spend a lot of their time traipsing around the school going from one "special" thing to another. When I was in school, we had an art teacher who would come to our class maybe once or twice a year to help us with art projects. It was such a rarity, I still remember her name.
Ok. How does this relate to the conversation?
There shouldn't be free time for Bible reading in school. I didn't have any such time for doing anything but what the school told us to do. Now it might have been possible in 5th and 6th grades, as we weren't taught much of anything new those two years. It was just a few more spelling words, a different reading book, and a different woefully out of date science book.
Ah. Gotcha. Like I said in the other post, I agree about how so much time is wasted now.
But, we're talking about how things are now. Not "back when" or how things should be. And mostly, kids today have a good amount of free time at school now. And are able to read their own Bibles at school during that time, if they wish to do so.
My wife is a teacher and would beg to differ. Almost every minute of the kids' day is scheduled out. They have the computer class, the reading class, physical education, etc. And then the teachers have to cram the kids for the testing in the time that's left. That's today, not "back when."
