Graduation is a big time in the life of a teenager and this time of year graduation signs and parties are everywhere. Often, cash is the gift of choice, but it can be impersonal. We’ve created a list of High School Graduation Gifts you can give to graduates that they will actually use and appreciate. And if you still want to give cash, you can always put money inside the wallet, mug or water bottle on this list as a little extra something!
