  While I doubt it went as far as the parents calling the police, way back when I was in high school, my friend got banned from the computers for “hacking” because he used the command prompt to control the computer instead of just the GUI.

    Which is crazy because I’m sure your teachers remember the days of DOS or earlier.

      The only reason we had a “computer class” was to learn how to type, and get familiarized with basic office software commonly used in universities. The lady who “taught” the class had some certification of being a “typist”, whatever the fresh hell that meant. I am pretty sure most of the staff had never really used a computer before, even the younger teachers mostly only ever used them to do data entry for the school.

      The ones who seemed to know anything were the art teachers, the music teachers, and the one who really knew things was the AP math teacher, as he had been using computers for complex math stuff for a long time, and was only teaching high school part time. He knew how to code, used unix, bsd, slackware. I wish we had a class where he taught computer something. He also wanted to do that, but they told him no, they only wanted an AP math teacher. He even defended my friend, but was basically dismissed because he wasn’t full time staff.

        What a nice teacher

        Many would not dare contradict their colleagues, you know the "Unified Front" strategy, like it's some war against the children.
