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?

No there was usually a two-way PA system that the teacher could call the school office with (an assistant principal would usually answer), but I don't remember ever seeing an actual phone in a classroom.
