It was the norm that there was no fratrenizing in several of the schools I attended. The dances were formal affairs and were VERY well chaperoned of course this was in a community where moral values were set by christian religious churches and "alternative" life styles were not encouraged or welcome.
Kids did not hve the "right" to privacy and their lockers were open for inspection, and the principle was encouraged by parents to paddle their kids if they misbehaved and on the occasion that some tough kid thought he was so baaad a shop teacher or one of the other male teachers would wait till they caught him being a bully and would deck his ass.....yeah I know can't do that any more...might bruise his ego or heaven forbid, damage his self esteem.

I know, those days are gone. Doesnt mean I have to like it.
