    I'm a high school teacher in the south and this is all pretty true. The valedictorians' families are typically the quietest, and the kids who barely pass have the loudest parents. Also, airhorns. So.many.airhorns.

      If it helps, unless you go to a very small school or are having the ceremony in a small space, it's hard to hear anything up on stage. You can hear it in the audience but on stage, it's more difficult. I'm not sure if people still do it but we had a problem in high school where the parents/audience would sneak in air horns to blow so the graduate could hear. So you can always pretend you had a crowd cheering you on who just forgot their airhorns.

      my family live in abroad so no one can attend because it'll cost too much. After my college graduation, I went to my part time job on campus still wearing my cap/gown. The good thing was that I didn't have any student loan debt because I work part time throughout college.

      People who celebrate a high school degree are people who won’t achieve much in life. I’d rather have not wasted time celebrating such mediocrity. If we didn’t force people to go to school graduation would mean much more.

      @Andrea Potter They also had White Parents in this skit being loud, it's not a racial mannerism, it's a mannerism for low income families. Impoverished families celebrate the little things with more enthusiasm because the odds are stacked against them, so it's more of an accomplishment. My parents are Black, but they are successful and educated, so they do not behave this way. People only think the overly-celebratory behavior is a "Black thing" because most Blacks are in the low income category in the first place, due to centuries of discrimination. This skit isn't a stereotype of Black People, it is a stereotype of Poor or Underprivileged People.

      My old high school had its graduation down to 45 minutes flat. The superintendent had it SO staged that it ran like a well tuned clock. Even the beautiful bound diploma covers were blank inside. The graduates picked up their diploma's later when they turned in their caps and gowns and assured "non rowdy behavior" during the ceremony. In MY opinion, that ruins it. My own graduation from the same school (which I spoke during) took a lot longer (about the same amount of graduates). But when I was handed that diploma, I had it right in my hands. My mother, who graduated from the same high school also, had hers on the football field. But that was already banned by the time I graduated and it still is almost 40 years later!
