Hey guys,

I'm finishing up my one year contract at a high school and I'm perplexed about what I should be planning for gift giving.

In my "inner circle" are four people who've dealt with me most of the time and are certainly the folks I'm most grateful to here. There are two women and two men and one of the women is my "handler"/co-teacher. I work with six other (co-teachers!) I'll probably have to do something a little above and beyond for my "handler" who will be the hardest to leave here of the group.

What have people done in the past or what suggestions do people have for this? I'm admittedly shopping "challenged" to say the least but I'd like to do the right thing w/o bankrupting myself as well. Things from the States might be really nice but I'm still clueless! I thought of getting them a real dictionary for their desks but the prices here are high and the weight for shipping from the States is also very high.

Any thoughts on this are super appreciated!!

You could take them all out to dinner and pay for it. That is what seems to happen everytime one of the faculty leaves here.

That's not a bad idea and you can't go wrong on buying the wrong gift for someone etc.. I wonder if they'd hate the International restaurant? Aren't Koreans obsessed with Outback ?
