My jr. high did, but they were rarely used. 99% of the time they were tied up out of reach. We did, however, have metal climbing poles outside which served essentially the same purpose. I was always good at that, as well as pullups. And situps. The only thing I really hated in PE was the dreaded sit-and-reach. I've always been painfully inflexible.
