Sounds horrible. Up until graduating from highschool, year closing ceremonies were a big thing in schools in my country (Europe). So in some of the hottest days in June-July, you have kids dressed in cheap suits stand on hot concrete in the school’s court, sweating under the scorching sun. Always had somebody escorted out when feeling ill, luckily nothing as bad as falling over. But still, what a pointless thing

My graduation took place in that same stadium, on a morning in late May. We were all facing East, wearing suits, jackets and ties under cheap polyester smocks. What a farce the whole thing is.
