A phenomenon where graduations from middle school, high school, and college feel particularly significant as they mark the transition into new life phases. In contrast, kindergarten and primary school graduations are perceived as less impactful, akin to how 2 A.M. is seen as just "in the middle of the night", representing a continuation of childhood rather than a major life milestone.
The transitional graduation effect is clear when you see how excited students are for high school and college ceremonies, while kindergarten graduations feel more like just another step in their childhood journey.
