Schools before the 1960s had strict dress codes, discipline policies, and student-teacher relationships. Girls wore blue aprons and white dresses while boys had short haircuts and hats. Students who did not maintain proper hygiene or complete homework could be physically punished. Homework completion was strictly enforced, with non-compliance sometimes resulting in confinement without food or water. Field trips were usually short walks or competitions. Students used chalk slates, notebooks, pencils, and erasers for school and homework. Schools were typically located in village centers in large buildings that could hold 30-35 students per class.
