Last day of school celebrations?

Does anyone do anything special to celebrate the last day of school with their teens? Our last day seems a little anti-climactic this year. My DD is a freshman, so she's been having finals for the past 4 days and getting out around 10 a.m. I feel like my 7th grader is getting shortchanged. By the time he has his last day on Wednesday, it won't seem like a big deal anymore.

Last day was in May, but no; nothing big here (freshman year for ds this past year too). In 7th a bunch of guys went bowling, but that's it. But then he's not part of the 'popular' party crowd either. He's happy to get extra XBox Live time on such an occasion! LOL.

No, we've never done anything special for the last day of school. Just that fact that it *was* the last day of school was enough. :)
