My buddy in high school had moved in when we were in 8th grade from PA. He was not used to the usual maltreatment from the nuns that my Catholic friends regularly enjoyed.
Sister Bigass tried to rap his knuckles with a ruler. My buddy stood up, took the ruler away and broke it over his knee.
"Teachers are for teaching and not touching," he said.
Needless to say, that's how I bumped into him in public school. I have to say that it saved his folks a lot on tuition.

Eight years of Catholic grade school, though three of those years our "homeroom" teacher was a civilian woman. Getting sent to Catholic school vs. public school was quite possibly the most fortunate thing that ever happened to me, edumacation-wise at least. The Sisters didn't f- around.
