Yes - Mags were in schools, too! I saw 20" Magnavox color sets (late-80's) in schools that had the Channel one satellite service.

The sets had a "turn-on" signal sent over the cable distribution. The cable distribution from satellite receiver was for channel 3 only, so it was crude, using line taps and RG-6 cable.

useless for any sort of broadband.
The building's PA system had an audio feed from the receiver box so the audio would play as a take-over on the PA system at the same time each day. Reminds me of Tele-tubbies and the pop-up speakers coming out of the ground announcing another commercial brainwashing session.
