Australia
I don't particularly remember our high school having showers at all (early 1960s) but certainly in sporting clubs all male shower rooms were mostly either open or with half-cubicles i.e. walls but no door or curtain. Interestingly now a major sporting facility in Melbourne has separate shower and changing cubicles but a communual (mixed sex) central room. It seems the idea is that you can leave your bag, shoes etc in the common room and take your towel and change of clothes into the cubicles. My partner and I had showers in adjoining cubicles and it was quite exciting and very tempting to sneak in with her but she kept the door locked (We are in our 60s so she is not as adventurous as some younger ones).
