Final grade of high school in Canada, except in Ontario where they have the wacky-ass Grade 13 which I'm not going to get into.

Is mostly spent torturing all the members of the lower grades, taking endless barrages of tests and applying to colleges and universities.

The best time in some people's lives, mostly for the first reason.

Culminates in grad and grad night, a celebration of deflowering, alcohol poisoning and car accidents.
