mrs. ladybird - The exam happened when my family moved to another state and I had to enroll at a new school. The school required a physical examination and this could be done either at the school, or by the student's family physician. Since we had just moved and didn't have a new doctor yet, I got the exam at the school.
This was a LONG time ago and I am a little hazy on some of the details. I don't know whether the exam was given by a school nurse or a doctor. I also don't know why my teacher was there, although it might have been related to walking me through the enrollment process. I do remember that this was going on while the class was outside at recess. The teacher simply stood there silently during the exam.
Yes, I was "exposed" during the exam, but I just accepted this. This was during the 1960s when obedience to authority was expected, and a lot of stuff went on in schools that wouldn't be allowed today (like corporal punishment). I also viewed female teachers as maternal figures, and my mom saw me naked all the time anyway, so I didn't think this was odd.
You can email me if you want to discuss this further. I don't check this board often.
