The kids dress in their cap and gowns and go to their elementary schools and parade through the halls. Which is huge. The kids get to see their future and the teachers get to see their hard work pay off.
Do not minimize what a high school graduation is. It is important. Very important. And do not tell me it wasnt important to you. Because I was a fuck off in HS and I still remember walking across that stage and getting my diploma. And it was important.

My daughter complained about HS all the time but she is definitely broken up about not only graduating but her senior prom as well.
Wonder if I can get the dress place to take back the $280 dress we bought her? (FAT CHANCE)
