Did your school classrooms have a landline telephone for the teacher to use? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

I learned today that some people attended schools where this was normal. The schools I went to only had phones in the office and the teachers lounge. What was your experience?

Not in elementary school, no. Some of my highschool teachers had phones on their desks or in their offices depending on what they did.

They weren't landlines, though. They were connected to an internal phone network.
