Did you get your HS senior ring turned?

My kid’s HS ring day is fast approaching so my sister asked to save her a turn. My daughter (no picks you sick bastards) had no clue what she was talking about so we explained to her that you had family and friends turn your ring a full turn, while on your finger, the number of times equal to the year you’re graduating. She had no clue what we were talking about and apparently it’s not a tradition at her school.
Did y’all have a senior ring turning tradition at your school? What other traditions did y’all have besides turning your ring 1/2 way around and slapping the freshmen on top their heads?

Pawned my high school ring in 2010 to score some Tide pods.

I have no idea what you're talking about

Never heard of that.
Did give it to a girl who never returned it though.

I have no clue what you're talking about and high school rings are an incredible waste of money.

Nope, never heard of that. I think I still have my class ring around somewhere though. Long time ago.

I turned my ring and smashed it on the head of eighth graders

I’ve never even heard of this tradition, but I went to an all boys school. Maybe this is more of a girls thing.
This wasn’t limited to freshmen. Everyone could get it

Never heard of this tradition. And is this really important?
Posted on 3/17/23 at 1:42 pm to Bourre
I did. Approximately 1000 years ago. The last person to turn it was supposed to be your favorite person and turn it the opposite direction of everyone else to “lock it”. It was dumb. (My now-husband/then-boyfriend “locked” mine, fwiw.)

Beats the crap out of me, I graduated almost 30 years ago. I am pretty sure my senior year girlfriend was the last person with my ring. Maybe it's in the pocket of my letterman.

We did not have that tradition. We didn't need it. Our school colors were black and gold so our rings look better than everyone else's.

Like on a lathe?
No. Have zero clue what you're talking about. But I also couldn't tell you where in the hell my HS class ring is either.

Sounds like some weird aggie thing

Yes, I vaguely remember doing this.

Ring-turning was something only the girls did.
Posted on 3/17/23 at 1:48 pm to Bourre
Yep we did...20+ years ago. Ugh I'm old!

HS senior ring
Posted on 3/17/23 at 1:49 pm to Bourre
High School rings are useless the day you enter college.

At the beginning of senior year we got a little Pom Pom ring to wear until we got our real ring
After we got our rings at the ring ceremony - we ran through the halls to get our ring turned
I wonder what the class of 2000 did - was it 0 turns or 100??
