Hey internet friends. My oldest is a Junior and got their class ring last night. His school had a whole event / ceremony for their class.

I didn't grow up with this at all. One person in my graduating class got a class ring and there was no ceremony, no fanfare, nothing.

Is this a thing others have seen? Ceremonies where class rings are presented?

If you went to High School in the US, did you have a ceremony at school presenting class rings?

Never have and never will believe in "#popular #kids". All that is is a #slur against the ones who put effort into #socializing from the ones that don't. I grew up and kept to myself most of the time, but my #friend group had its tentacles in every #clique. If you shared my interests, mainly #videogames and #basketball, I was ready to mingle. I wasn't vindictive or jealous of my peers that had made more connections. That's just sad.

once in #highschool i was on the #bus home with a #classmate i knew from #gradeschool and she was going on and on about her favorite member of #NKOTB and just to fuck with her I randomly went "oh, I thought you liked Donny" and she went fucking OFF 😅

Just received a text from a friend who teaches in the local school district. I'm so amused.

"The entire fourth grade just had their iPads confiscated for the rest of the year. They created a Google environment where they were all texting and sharing documents. Since the THIRD GRADE!!”

So now they don’t have iPads for a week.

Give that kid who set up this whole shadow infrastructure a job!

What year is Treasure Island taught in schools? Or is it not taught anymore?
