Every year Massachusetts holds their All State meet on the day of graduation. This forces athletes to choose between graduation and the All State meet. Some top athletes will choose graduation and run at nationals instead. While anyone who doesn’t have a chance at placing will automatically skip. This makes the state meet a lot less exciting and it seems like an easy fix, why can’t they move it to sunday? Any other states like this?

My high school graduation in MA was on a Sunday.
All schools in Mass have graduation on the same day?
Also, do kids realize that they do not have to attend the graduation ceremony in order to graduate? Who the heck would choose siting in an auditorium for hours over running in a state championship? I would have welcomed an excuse to be out doing just about anything else.
