Did you have to climb a rope in Physical Education or any other educational class? (beehaw.org)

And if you did what class grade/year would it had happened? What decade (if your comfortable sharing)?

I am wondering how many people actually did this and from what locations/ages/years it would have happened. For my education (American elementary-college years 2000’s-2010’s) I never had to do that. I feel like I had to be common enough that it is referenced in movies and tv shows.

Maybe one time? I know there was a rope in a gym at one school I went to. Would've been one of the middle schools I attended (which was an old high school). So like 97-00 or so, in the suburban/exurban US Midwest.

But I got the feeling it was just something we did for fun one day. It wasn't required by any means. And that's the only time I can think of attempting a rope climb. I never touched a rope in PE/Physical Fitness classes ever again, or even saw one in another school.
