This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Whoever wrote my daughter's health class text apparently lives in the 1950s. (lemmy.world)

Maybe they can go to the malt shop later? And then the sock hop?

TV makes it seem normal, but I've never seen one IRL. But then, I've also never seen a school that is entirely inside a single building or has multiple floors, either. And I'm sure those exist somewhere.

I live in Germany and not once in my life have I seen a school that doesn't have multiple floors.

I live in the US and I have never went to a school with only one floor.

Weird. All my schools had a bunch of single story classrooms you walk between. Nice to get some sunshine between classes

Back when I was in school, it was a few single story buildings and then a trailer park of more classrooms.

even my catholic one that was on a shoestring budget had two floors. k-2 on first floor along with art and music rooms and 3-6 on second floor.

Funny, it feels like half of schools in Denmark are in multi-floor buildings, especially city schools.

I went to a school that is one multi story building. It's not a big school though which may be why. Highly populated area probably don't see things like that anymore .

They seem to be more of thing in other states, especially the East Coast and Midwest. I grew up in earthquake territory along the San Andreas fault and most schools here are just a collection of "temporary" double wide trailers that are individual class rooms.

I'm in California, my high school was multi storied? We had portables too, but most of the classes were in the building. I think it's normal everywhere.
