Yesterday was watching kid graduate pre-k and hanging with the family.
As a child I don't recall "graduating" from pre-k. It was just another day for me. And then a few months later I was back in school.
Maybe we didn't have graduations back then... I don't recall correctly.

I don't think we did either. But in this area the schools are trying really hard to get / keep parents involved in the lives of their kids. It's an effort that I think is worthy of support! There was a great turnout and the little program was cute too, so it was very worth it... Except for the getting drenched afterwards (it was pouring rain here too).

So long as it was enjoyable family time. If you were just sitting there the entire time not participating I wouldn't really count it as family time.
I hope you were able to participate..

There was a little audience participation. The family time was afterwards, lol. It was worth burning a day's vacation to go for.

Trying to get motivated after going to the Cleveland vs Cincinnati. That was almost a little league game... at one point Cinci walked home 4 runs for us. Ended up Cle won 13 to 1.

tly.I tried to not even walk for high school graduation but my parents made me. But for college, I refused to walk for any of my degrees. Never had one prior to graduating high school.

How much time you got left? There's always time to reprogram the coffee maker, hack the printers to announce voice recognition on their displays or pull the fire alarm and make sure it works...

Personally, I didn't get the point of it, except for keeping parents involved...

I totally agree with the idea. But seems like there would be better times to get parents involved, like during the education portions. There are so many opportunities to be involved, having ceremonies takes away from what could be otherwise "family time".

Feels like a kind of arm's length involvement. So many better ways for involvement to happen.

This school did that too, all throughout the year. There were picnics and get togethers for the family, first aid training for the parents that need it. The parents were involved in field trips and everything else too. It was a well done Pre-k program.
