[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8th grade "graduation" is a huge deal at my city school (not DC). Only about 75% of the kids will graduate from HS so they go over the top with it. I think it is also a cultural thing as the kindergarten "graduation" is just as big of a deal. The girls look like they are headed to their 1st Communion or their wedding. Many of them have make-up on and some have hair extensions. The first time I attended I thought that this is what pageants must be like (ala Jon Benet Ramsey).[/quote] There's no need to put "graduation" in quotes, you know. People certainly did used to graduate from 8th grade. It was the end of elementary school. Remember where Sarah in All-Of-A-Kind Family graduates from 8th grade and doesn't win the history prize?[/quote]
