Rant: Kindergarten "Graduations"

I'm sorry, but I think this whole graduation ceremony for kindergartners is ridiculous. We didn't have kindergarten graduation when I was a kid. We just knew we were moving on up to 1st grade which meant a whole day at school and no nap time. LAME!

I think its just another way for schools to make you waste your hard earned cash on caps and gowns (those can cost like $25!!) and photos, not to mention a waste of time that you could be spending with your family, not with a hundred other families. Sure, their little signing is cute, but shoots, have a choir concert, not a wasteful graduation. They are 5, they are not going to care about a graduation and are probably getting bored waiting for you to call their name so they can get their little certificate that isn't going to be looked at by any college, university, or future job. "Oh, you don't have your kindergarten graduation certificate??!? I'm sorry, we only accept kindergarten graduates at this establishment."  PSSHH!


Ok, that is all. KINDERGARTEN GRADUATION!!! *Shaking my head. NOW that is all.
