That’s how it was at the university level for me in the US.

In high school though, yeah even 20+ years ago it was getting permission to leave or having justification to be wandering the halls during classes (which I often did, haha).

It didn’t seem overbearing at the time because we would move between classrooms every 45 minutes anyway, and it was like the school was responsible for you like a parent would be.

In hindsight, yeah the authoritarian structure of the public schools looks bad, especially since the country has slid to the right and school security designed around mass shootings is the norm.
