Graduation coincides with some of the busiest moments of the school year. Standardized testing, end-of-year activities, finals, and more can interfere with your well-intended plans to create a meaningful send-off. Of course our heartfelt well-wishes are always the best gift we can give graduating seniors. However, if you choose to celebrate their accomplishments with a tangible gift, here are some thoughtful senior graduation gifts from teachers that you can buy or DIY in a reasonable time frame.

(Just a heads up, WeAreTeachers may collect a share of sales from the links on this page. We only recommend items our team loves!)

1. Your best advice

Set up a photo booth in your classroom for a memorable and inexpensive graduation gift for high school seniors. Just hang a backdrop, hand out props, and let students have fun taking celebratory photos with you and their classmates. For the most budget-friendly option, students can take digital photos on their phones. However, if you want to splurge, use a Polaroid camera to give them a physical memento.
