I retyped school and name and copied them over but did not work could it be the device
What kind of device do you use for testing?
maybe the error is from here(that wasn't making any scene for me before but Nishyanth_Kumar told me it does make scene) :
or maybe the value does not have to be a integer
and because of these (or something else), global examples has an x and that means it will return nothing and nothing is not a dictionary
and your trying to get a value for key from nothing
now see the full image:
solution: maybe use 
instead of 
or maybe this is making the error or maybe you have to update your companion app
try to click on that X show us the message
This is a perfectly valid dictionary instantiation; it's a good example of nested dictionaries:
I hypothesize that OP's project and/or blocks are corrupt.
Even if examaps isn't recognized as a variable, it should result in a compilation error, not a runtime error.
Two other possibilities here are that the companion version is fairly old, or that this is the iOS companion where the publicly available version doesn't yet implement dictionaries. Both could result in the initialize block error.

a school tablet
I have cleared the error and tried and did not work
looking in to it the oldest file is from Dec 7, 2018
At least in the app inventor file
would this fit those conditions?
and if so can it be fixed/updated?
android or apple ?
android
this is to fill minimum requirement
I will try it
Can you get someone to update the Companion on your school tablet?
not at the moment but maybe in a bit
and also update what app inventor/or the tablet its self
to version 2.62
This should resolve your issue. If not, ask for another tablet
