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.

Yes, we did this in late elementary school (I want to say 5th grade, or 10-11ish years old?), but did not do it beyond that. There were two ropes--one standard rope and one with evenly spaced knots that you could use to climb with hand and footholds. This was in the '90s.
