cash is always good! For family members, I usually ask the mom or dad if they are  buying a large present -- like a camera or computer, and chip in. \n\nA nice photo frame is good - for their grad pictures and pictures of friends from high school --.\n\nIf they are going to university or college, see if you can order a t-shirt or hoodie from the place they will be attending.

You should go I graduated last week and it was such a good feeling. Even if your family is not making a big deal out of it you should this is a very big accomplishment in your life. Sometimes you have to pat yourself on the back. Go celebrate you made it through years of hard work and struggle. I know because I know I did. It's definitely something to celebrate girl you go and celebrate with your friends. Just know that even though your family is not making a big deal out of it this is a big deal not everybody can say I'm a high school graduate.

There's plenty of graduation cards at the drugstore.  I had to think of something similar for my cousin who graduated from law school.  I just got him a fancy clock for his desk from Z Gallerie.

If it's a big high school you could fundraise and start a high school radio channel, and get sponsorship from local businesses in return for mentioning them during adverts and between shows.\nYou could start making something useful and sell it off for less than the usual price. In my school we made pot pourri sachets and ornaments. They sold very well. \nYou could get local businesses to sponsor a group from your school to do a play or a mini marathon or something. That way you would be promoting the local businesses and would be making money for charity, and would be keeping health and wellbeing in the project.

My high school days were some of the best of my life...granted, I just graduated a few years ago, but still--sometimes I would give anything to go back.  Go ahead--have fun! :-)

Buy her a nice digital camera.... this summer will probably be the last time she'll see most of her HS friends.  It's a good way to keep the memories, and when she goes off to college (she is going, right?) it'll be nice to get pics from her through email once in a while......

if you havent got flash drive, it may be a very good choice because:\n- you can actually use it /useful\n- last a few years if you use it well, good for memorabilia... ten years later you can still have it, a small gift that reminds you about the first time you go to college\n- with cash an gift certificate, you can find something that may last for sometime, such as the flash drive. Nice to have a memorabilia to remember the moment you enter college.

That will largely depend on the child, and of course, your financial situation.\nMy parents used to spend about $300 a piece on us when we were in high school.\n\nAlthough, I have to tell you that the most meaningful gift I ever got only cost $12. It was the missing book from a collection I had.... If you're thoughtful and can find something that they really want and will cherish, there isn't any need to go that high.

Buy her a beautiful frame or plaque to show her diploma off.  Or you could take her out for a night of just plain fun, just to get away from the stress of finding a new job. Or depending on her degree, you may get something for her that pertains to what she will be doing, like a briefcase-for business, stethascope-nurse, etc.  congrats to your friend and good luck with your gift buying, your a good friend.

A gift card is perfect for someone who seems to have everything.\n\n~ Barnes & Noble, Borders, Amazon if she likes books\n~ iTunes if she's into music\n~ Bed, Bath, and Beyond, Pottery Barn, if she is the decorating type.\n\nOr maybe a gift card to her favorite clothing store, hair salon, spa, or nail parlor, if she's that type. That type stuff makes you feel special and pampered, but is quite expensive and not usually in a college student's budget.\n\nHTH :-)

Well, I know this isn't a HUGE AWESOME gift. But it could just be a SIDE gift. I'm currently 14 and I gave my brother this when he graduated from high school and he loved it. And it's a common gift for graduations too. "Oh The Places You'll Go!" by Dr.Suess. It's extremely meaningful.

I think graduation gifts are sometimes the hardest to shop for.  Do you get the grad a fun gift they will enjoy, or a practical gift they need and will use?  Though impersonal, gift cards are sometimes the best option so they can get what they want.  My friend's mom coordinated his gifts by registering at a store for things he would need for college life.  The cool part was that most of his gifts were wrapped in new bath towels or washcloths that he would need as he moved out on his own.  Another gift he got was like an assorted gift basket of different items, but put in a new laundry basket.  If your friend is planning on moving to a college dorm or out on his/her own after graduation, household items might be a good idea.  One gift I got when I graduated high school was personalize stationary with envelopes and stamps and a phone card so I could "keep in touch".  I don't know if a guy would go for that though...  Whatever you decide, make sure there is a lot of thought behind the gift.  You can even "dress up" a gift card by putting it in a CD you know he'll like.  Good luck!
