Last Day of School!

[Julie]

LOL, today is the last day of school and if you are a senior and your family owns a farm tractor, drive it to school today! There are about 10 of them in the student parking lot.

That's classic. Yesterday was Carlynton's last day of school. Graduation ceremonies are tonight.

Ha! Is that a PA thing or a "rural farmer" thing?

 

[MinVin]

Well, it is definitely a rural thing... but I don't know if it is limited just to PA or not. There are a few rural districts not all that far from me where they drive tractors to the prom!

I'm also rejoicing that today is the last day of school because SWMBO is a teacher and that means her stress levels will decrease significantly!

LOL, it might be a PA thing, Saxonburg is not all that rural anymore.

Seneca Valley?

Seneca Valley?

Grove City, actually.

They also do that at the rural schools by me.

Aren't all the schools near you rural?

Glad to see someplace still does it. When I was in high school, in the early 80's, there were more tractors than cars in the lot on the last day.

It is between my house and Pittsburgh mostly. Every year we'll come across a cow walking down the street at least once near my house.

I can still remember my last day of school. So exciting and can't wait to get out. Sadly no I never drove a tractor to school, we were too far away from the school. It would have taken hours to get there and at a 75 cents a gallon for gas, don't know if I could have afforded that.
