Subject: usage question

Dear colleagues,

A parent recently asked me a question for which I had no ready answer. The question is actually one that I have experienced much frustration over for several years--my high school textbooks and usage textbooks seem to have no ready answers for acceptable preposition usage in a variety of situations.

The question is this: Do students graduate from high school or do they graduate high school?

I would love to hear from you people.

thanks
