NWR: Returement Gift

Ladies,
Can you recommend a retirement gift for a teacher?

She's not a wine/champagne drinker. And she's not going to 'miss' teaching very much (never loved it) so no tokens/momentos.

Im leaning towards spa gift card but thought you might be more clever, as usual :)

TIA!

Re: NWR: Returement Gift

does she have a family? maybe a digital frame is a good idea.

or if she likes to travel, get her a gift cert to orbitz (i assume they have them, but i could be wrong)

or if she likes gardening, how about a garden kit of sorts.

otherwise, i like your spa gc idea

I think the spa gift card is perfect!

FH's mom is an elementary school teacher and is retiring this year. We're getting her the crystal apple paperweight from Tiffany. She can display it on a shelf (bc who really uses paper weights??)
