Since first posting this I remembered I came across a write-up else where, where another reason they stopped showering was gym coaches were so afraid of being accused of being pedophiles that the thought of having a locker room full of underage boys fully nude didn't sit too well with them.
Only six percent of schools in the US public schools offer daily physical education classes. The problem is money so many of the schools have developed programs that offer physical activity that do not require a shower.
To start a phys ed program costs a school approximately $500,000. And increasingly, schools just don't have that kind of money to spare in this economy.
In terms of your other point schools who do offer a physical education program an adult is never alone with a student in a locker room or shower area.
