I think it’s silly to even have “kindergarten graduations”.

Based on the behavior of the students' parents and siblings, I'm guessing it's the only graduation they'll ever be attending.

They graduate fully qualified for any jobs involving: making hand-prints, and potato-prints; pressing leaves; finger painting; using library paste, without eating it; and afternoon napping.

After checking out post #4, it might be the only graduation those kids ever see.....

Not really. As long as every kid graduates and every kid receives a participation trophy (and nothing else) it should pass liberal muster.

We’re talking about Cleveland after all.

I think it is also silly to have sixth grade “graduation.” Graduation should mean that you are no longer obligated to attend public schools. The only graduation should be high school and college.

Bingo.

Even my Catholic school adopted this silliness years ago. 8th graders like my nephew got “grad”, and I guess my boy will have to do it, too.

We dumb down everything and make important things seem trivial by adding this silly stuff. Even in my own time I didn’t think overmuch of my HS grad, wanted the college for real meaning. But now those 2 will be just another meaningless reward to these kids.

After six or more years, it's worth celebrating when they finally graduate.
