The nuns (in the 60’s) would make us pound the chalk out of the erasers if we misbehaved so we would show up at home covered in chalk dust. They knew that our dad would take care of any behavioral problems we might have had. They also included a smack with a paddle or pointing stick, too.

BTW, the nuns taught us to speed read (with comprehension tests), do math in our head, and how to write structured sentence/paragraphs/documents. Invaluable skills for my working life...
