When I was in school, they had typing classes in jr. high and high school, and there was also a programming class in high school as an elective.  I took the typing class in 8th grade, and in 9th grade, I took the programming class and was hoping it would be C or C++, but they were teaching BASIC.  They were still using a book from the late 70s, and this was the mid-90s when I was taking the class..
