They didn't allow calculators in school until I was 16, and then only in Science class, we still had to do everything by hand in Maths, And they were forbidden in tests until college - I still have my slipstick from like 1975. Now when I do mental arithmetic in the checkout line it's like I'm freaking Gandalf.

We allowed them even in tests but that started in highschool. Sometimes there would be a no calc section.
