Where did you go to high school? I went to Nashua High in the 1980's, and I don't remember any DEC machines at school. I used an Apple II in elementary school, but I don't remember using school computers much during high school.
My father worked for DEC when I was young, and I remember going in with him and playing something like terminal invaders while he did some work on the weekends. Most of my work with computers before college was at home, and I really appreciate my parents for investing in home computers at that point in time.
