Alfie Martin - I copied this from the CTA website:

Reduced fare passes for grade school and high school students require a Student Riding Permit and can be used ONLY on weekdays between 5:30 am and 8:00 pm when school is in session.

Answer 3

32-37 is what I remember as that was the number of desks the rooms could hold. We did have order, but back then students were much more respectful of their elders and teachers so control wasn't an issue as it is today. If we did disrupt the classroom, a visit to the principals office was in order, and a call made to home. I feared answering to my father more than the principal. We learned because it was expected of us to pay attention and learn. We were not given the option. I think my teachers did a remarkable job and I wish I could thank each and every one. my high school had 10th thru 12th grades and we had over 3,000 students My graduating class was 854.
