What exactly is a "large classroom" these days? I'm apparently of your generation -- 60 to a class was normal in the Catholic schools, but 40-45 was not unusual in public schools. Nowadays, I think they consider any number over 20-25 cruel and unusual!
Of course, in those days, parents weren't inclined to sue if their children were disciplined! ;-)

Even my high school classes had 60+ students in a class.....our graduating class numbered 998 students in 1967.

Yes, I went to a Catholic school back then and we had about 45 kids in our class. Gee I wonder why the nun was tying kids to their chairs? The taping the mouth? Oh and I remember one time a nun was disciplining a boy, she put him in a closet, she made a mistake and went in after a few minutes to talk to him, he panicked and pulled her habit off. Ahh, yes the good ole days! No discipline problems there! Total control!
