The graduating class of 2020 will definitely be one to remember. Our graduating high school and college students seemed to get the short end of the stick on the usual ceremonies and accolades this year, but we have loved how the community has come together to honor these kids in non-traditional ways.
If you have a family member or friend who is graduating this year and are at a loss for gift ideas, you have come to the right place. We surveyed our readers and asked for the best graduation gifts their students have given or received. We hope they will inspire you to find a fun way to celebrate your graduates! We’ve included links to a few of our favorite places to purchase some of these items!
