I'm glad your school (and you) are teaching DOS.
Most HS grads, particularly those not going to 4-year college, go on to
workplaces where the computers are _not_ Pentiums running Windows 95. Many
are those "obselete" (to computer stores!) 286 clones that don't have enough
RAM to run Windows, or the place just chose DOS. The kids need this.
