As for heat stroke from going outside? Not every child goes to school in Florida and in a month, even Florida will cool off enough to spend time outdoors during the day. None of my schools, K through college ever had air conditioning, of course that was in Ohio. There might have been a class or two in my last year of college in the new biology building that AC, but I have no memory of it. Every one had lots and lots of open windows.

Pre A/C.........schools and other public buildings in both the north and south were built with HIGH ceilings - because hot air rises. The cooler air then rolls in through the open doors or lower windows of the building. Florida and Arizona used "swamp coolers" which were evaporation coolers - somewhat effective.
