id say unless you had a phenomenal high school career, like under sports or academically, i wouldnt spend your money for that.
yeah, once you get into college, after a while high school won't mean as much to you. so, no need for the ring.
what's a high school ring? how coem I've never heard of anything like this back when I was in high school??(and this wasn't that long ago) I'm getting my first ever ring when I graduate and I have an iron ring, . Why's it my first? Well I was just lazy and never bought any hand jewelry before ^^;;;. I guess if it really means that much for you to get that ring then you should.
