And even though we now call that ceremony when you finish school "culmination," we also still call the evening class celebration "grad night."  |
What I find weird is how many graduations kids these days seem to have. I was born in 1970. I had 1 graduation in school, and that was at the end of the 12th grade. It seems these days kids graduate kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, Jr HS and then HS. WTF?
