Wow!  Yes.

For me
grades 1-6 - nothing
grades 7-8 - officially nothing, but dad could get a school TRS-80 for the
summer (no one can steal it if it's not in the school).
grades 9-12 - Commodore PET

College - IBM-PC XT clone.

Right after college 386.
By then the schools had Apple II GS for grades 1-8.  Grades 9-12 had IBM-PC (at
least AT, probably better).
