Are you kidding me, the few (ok two people) who visit here haven't seen anything in over two months. I am thinking that I have only an audience of 1 left. ME. Not to worry, I will be back for more. So today I will blog on....Kindergarten graduation. I am sorry I know that I am supposed to think that it's a great thing since my school has one. But come on. Who doesn't graduate kindergarten? I mean I understand that if you are a little school that has only kindergarteners and they are leaving for a new school, maybe you could buy the whole thing. But for us, they are graduating to go............to the next door down the hall. That's it. And I am sorry but you have to be really far behind to not pass kindergarten. You don't really have to know your colors, though it helps. You don't really have to count, though it helps. You don't even have to know letters, though it helps. Why? BECAUSE Kindergarten is not manditory. Therefore you can't really fail it. So we have a ceremony, music, pictures, and an auditorium full of people to watch kids go to the next doorway? Oh you are being caustic, D. No I am not. Especially since I am unsure of the meaning of the word. We have to have ceremonies that have meaning or everything is devalued. What if the kid thinks "hey I did my part I graduated that kinder thing.....no more for me." That won't look good on a resume. I am telling you because I have seen some resumes that listed that as their last and only graduation. DID you know that they actually had kindergarten graduation parties? What?!? (always wanted to put severl marks together like that.) I am serious. I guess if I am the kid this is a good thing. I would demand graduation gifts and more freedoms. Roll the credits. |
