If you are looking for something more sentimental, you could try the following:
A classic childhood book, it reminds graduating students of their childhood and the message that there is a whole world of opportunity out there for them to go and explore.
Another gift is a keepsake or piece of jewelry that has the student's graduation year on it or a watch or tennis bracelet that could be worn for years to come.
“There is nothing more beautiful than finding your course as you believe you bob aimlessly in the current.
Wouldn’t you know that your path was there all along, waiting for you to knock, waiting for you to become.
This path does not belong to your parents, your teachers, your leaders, or your lovers.
Your path is your character defining itself more and more everyday like a photograph coming into focus.”
