APS graduation not happy

[Anonymous]

I didn't want to go to any of my own graduations. I can't imagine caring who walks and who doesn't in the ceremony.

Considering all of the actual problems in the world, it must be nice to have the capacity to care about this.

I’m sad that someone thinks this is something to complain about. It hurts no one and can mean a lot to the kids who otherwise wouldn’t have any ceremony.

its my first APS grad I attended, it not like that in most schools

You are completely wrong. I am in education and have worked in numerous districts and states and they all do it, you just didn't know.

Our school on the West Coast didn't allow it.

This happens in undergrad and graduate schools all the time, including law school which is one of the most cut-throat groups of people. No one gives a $h!t.

You seem pretty petty. Please try and find some kindness and compassion for those less fortunate than your child. And you won't listen, but I'm begging you not to point out the poor kid that you've identified, just keep your mouth shut.

My cousin in California walked after failing math spring semester senior year. She had to take it over the summer to officially graduate.

My kid had a friend who wasn't allowed to walk. I thought that sucked.

There is always something to complain about!
I wonder if it was your student if you would feel differently?
Shouldn’t all kids have a graduation experience?

I’m foreign and I really don’t get why it seems like a big deal graduating HS or getting a HS diploma in the US in the first place.

NP. I assume the issue isn't with students having a graduation experience - if they've met the requirements for graduation- rather, they shouldn't go through the ceremony if they haven't yet completed the requirements. OP may be assuming those students are actually receiving their diplomas. I don't think they receive an actual diploma until after they have met the graduation requirements.
