What is it with all these graduations? I have seen kindergarten, 6th grade, 8th grade.

For pete's sake, let's just have a graduation every freakin' day.

Our school district only holds the traditional high school graduation, so I don't understand why all of those are necessary either.

my daughter attends Catholic school and is graduating from 8th grade in a few weeks. it is a big deal. these kids have been together 9 years and are going their separate ways to a variety of different high schools, both Catholic and public. They will have a graduation ceremony in church, and they are required to dress up. The boys must wear suits or jackets and ties, and the girls are not permitted to wear spaghetti straps and must have their shoulders covered. i don't know about public school 8th grade graduations, but in Catholic school, at least in the DC area, this is routine, and IMO, justified.

Hey now!

8th grade graduation is the only one I ever got!

(I graduated when I was junior by taking the GED)
