I went to public HS in the mid/late 90's and looking back I'm surprised at the photography resources we had. The school had cameras, film developing equipment, a whole darkroom, projectors (for prints, I forget if that's what they're called) and all the necessary chemicals to develop.

'Can you have a look at this for me? We misplaced the charger for a while and now it won't charge.'
BMS had switched off, force charge the battery, still no good.
