Many stories feature a principal cast that is primarily made of children or teenagers, and many such series therefore spend a good amount of time with these characters in school. When these stories end, it's common to send the cast off in a grand fashion by having them graduate from their present school level. As the big day approaches, characters meet to talk about where they're going next, reminisce about the good times together (such finales are often part Clip Show, allowing the audience to relive those moments), or just have one last great bash before they graduate and all (or some) go their separate ways.
These are especially poignant when the characters are in high school, as it adds an extra layer of the cast passing into adulthood and really starting their lives on their own. This ending may also be combined with And the Adventure Continues as the group finishes the ceremony and sets off on their last summer together.
This is sometimes even reversed: in stories set in a summer camp, the separation is brought about by the beginning of the school year, rather than the end.
This is Truth in Television, as many school friendships are broken up (at least partially) as the group's members go to different schools in the new year. Even when friends keep in touch afterward, a good portion of their time together is cut short as they no longer attend the same campus.
This combination of shared accomplishment and impending separation usually makes these Bittersweet Endings. Usually, everyone graduates, since it'd otherwise ruin the atmosphere is someone was held back. Can often overlap with "Last Day of School" Plot, which usually builds up to the graduation. See also Senior Year Struggles. Also compare Moving Away Ending, which ends with a character moving away - this trope may overlap if the reason for moving involves heading to the next stage of school after graduation.

Averted in Kamen Rider Fourze. Halfway through, Shun and Miu end up graduating, which it makes the Kamen Rider Club worry, since they're part of the club and they're kinda needed. However, it turns out the college they're to attend is right near the high school, so there's no worries of the team being separated.

Desperate Housewives:
Having been a major character throughout Seasons 1 to 4, Season 4 had Susan's daughter Julie go off to Princeton and only appear in one episode of Season 5, which was set five years later. She drops out of med school before Season 6 and comes back on a more permanent basis for that season, before graduating from the story again at the end of Season 6 by going back to med school. She's then absent for all of Season 7 except one episode, and comes back late in Season 8 having finished school to help Susan after Mike's death.
Danielle graduates more permanently; she leaves the story to go to Columbia at the end of Season 4 and then only appears in two episodes of Season 5, to show her taking Benjamin back from Bree, and then not at all until one episode of Season 8.

An odd case concerning Power Rangers. In Power Rangers Zeo, Billy ends up graduating early from high school due to his incredibly high grades. He later leaves the show. The rest of the team graduate fully in the first episode of Power Rangers Turbo, but don't officially move on from the show until halfway through.

The React meta series originally began as Kids React. But due to the series' acclaim and also in order for them to continue working with reactors who are growing up (particularly their Breakout reactor and Series Mascot Lia), they launched Teens React. From there they have launched Elders React (where Adults cast go once they reach 55, though this show was launched first) and Adults React (where Teens cast go once they reach 20).

Happens at the end of Glee's third season. Technically eight members graduated from Lima at the end of season 3. However, Rachel, Kurt, and Santana receive a decent chunk of screen time due to the New York narrative, and Finn spent a majority of season 4 hanging around Lima.
Season 5 mostly inverts it. Of those who graduated, only Tina left the show, as afterwards the show took place entirely in New York.

In My-HiME, several members of the cast, including Shizuru, Haruka, Reito and Takeda, graduate from Fuuka Academy in the last episode. Shizuru even jokes about deciding not to graduate so that she can stay behind with Natsuki, who must do make-up work lest she be forced to repeat a year.

Recess: School's Out had the kids leave fourth grade in the beginning, as the movie was supposed to be the Grand Finale. The kids are shown in fourth grade in the episodes after that (maybe, since the classroom scenes were gone and Miss Grotke went AWOL, they might have moved up already), only because the show was Un-Canceled. We do see them move up to fifth grade in the 2003 DTV movie Recess: Taking the Fifth Grade.

Spriggan ends with Ominae Yu's graduation ceremony. His classmates consider it something of a miracle since he's constantly running off to secure some artifact or other for Arcam and was constantly on the verge of missing attendance requirements. It also marks the end of a corporate power struggle and the restoration of its original principles at Arcam

Subverted in the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Season 7 premiere "Celestial Advice". Discord's pranking causes Twilight Sparkle to worry that Starlight Glimmer's studies in friendship are going too fast and, after remembering what happened to her with her studies, decides that the best thing to do is to send her to another town to continue her studies. After reassurance from Princess Celestia, she announces Starlight's graduation. However, Starlight is happy to graduate, but she doesn't want to leave, something that makes Twilight happy.

The Fresh Beat Band ends with the titular quartet finishing music school. They're old enough to have been in college, but in light of a preschool audience, what we actually see is nothing like it.

Averted with The College Years, as the show was cancelled after a season. Conversely, The New Class took the trope to its logical extreme by having Mr. Belding retire as the students graduated.

Another video game example, but with a twist: When you graduate from the Guild in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky, it starts the post-game story.

Even Stevens ended with The Movie, in which Ren graduated middle school and went on to high school, but due to Dawson casting (exacerbated by Comic-Book Time) it felt like a high school graduation.

This is the reason why Pretty Cure invokes Comic-Book Time: Yes! Pretty Cure 5 had Komachi and Karen on the verge of graduating and since Yes got a sequel and they wanted to keep the same cast.
Futari wa Pretty Cure MaX Heart ends this way, with Nagisa and Honoka graduating from middle school the day after the final battle.

K-On!'s anime adaptation ends with Yui, Ritsu, Mio and Tsumugi graduating from high school, though there are two bonus episodes that follow to allow the audience a little more time with the cast. However, the manga does have a post-series spinoff that shows their time in college.

Big Wolf on Campus ended (save for a finale Clip Show) with the main characters graduating high school. While it seemed like this would break up the gang, Merton decided to switch schools and room with Tommy, and Lori wasn't far away.

The anime of School-Live! ends with the characters "graduating" from high school. It's an informal graduation because they're living at school during a Zombie Apocalypse. The reason they left the school was because the zombies accidentally set the school on fire and it was inhabitable. The anime ends with them riding off in a car. In the manga this is subverted, as the story continues with them eventually settling down with college-aged survivors at another school and then moving on from that.
