Actually, they could, by district and school choice, up until just this year. This (2006/7) is the first school year without it, in
public schools. Private schools can still paddle.

It was probably used through the high school level in some areas, and perhaps just elementary in your area. Virginia is a state in which it varied quite a bit across the state, with much greater use in the rural and southern parts of Virginia, and less use in the more liberal areas, i.e. the closer to Washington one got, the more liberal and lax school discipline was.
