Bilingual people, when you were/if you are in school, did/do you ever talk to someone who speaks your language in that language so that the teachers won’t understand?

Me and my sibling were tired of my mom eavesdropping whenever so we learned another language to communicate between us. It would drive her crazy but she never bothered to learn to speak said language, so that's on her.

It's like the kids who would learn basic sign language to talk to each other across the classroom.

The teachers also knew the language

Well, I didn’t, as the teachers all spoke both my languages (Norwegian and English), but my kids do it all the time, with me and at school: they go to an international school (English/French) and often use Norwegian or Bosnian or even smatterings of Arabic just to mix things up, depending of who they want to understand.

A lot.
Indonesian is the world's biggest trilinguist country.People usually speaks their local languages (there are 700+ of them), Indonesian, and other foreign language.
In my class alone there are probably 8 languages spoken by the student (usually Indonesian, Javanese, Sundanese, Banjarese, Balinese, Indonesian, Chinese, Madurese, and so on), so they can just gossiping about things and the teacher or friends wouldn't know anything.

When I was at school (UK) there was a German girl and a Swiss girl talking in German and one of them said "Scheiser" really loudly, the teacher turnes and glared at them and slowly they realised why and had to apologise to the teacher, as they hadn't really thought that while he couldn't understand, he still knew the swear words!
Wasn't a big deal was just funny and everyone laughed (incl teacher), needless to say they were a bit more cautious after that.
