School Banners

Schools use banners for welcome and spirit messages, events, sports, fundraisers, and celebrations. Design yours online with your school colors, mascot, and logo, or upload a file from your design team or PTA. Every banner is printed on 13 oz matte vinyl, so it works indoors and outdoors.

School Banner Design Tips

• Use your school colors and logo. Upload the highest-resolution version of the logo you have, such as the original file from your district.
• Make the main message the biggest text. A school name or mascot plus one line reads best from across a field or parking lot.
• Add the date and time for events, so the banner works as an announcement, not just decoration.
• Leave the year off banners you want to reuse, like spirit and welcome banners.
• Add wind slits for fences, especially on 3x10 and larger banners.

School Banner FAQ

What size banner is best for a school?

A 3x6 is the most popular size for entrances, hallways, and fences. For gym walls or stage fronts, a 3x10 fits well. For fences along a field or parking lot, a 4x8 can be read from about 120 ft.

Can we use our school logo and mascot?

Yes. Add your logo in the online designer or include it in a design you upload. Use the largest, sharpest version you have so it prints clean at banner size.

Can a school banner be reused every year?

Yes. Leave dates off spirit and welcome banners, and roll the banner for storage instead of folding it to avoid creases.

How fast can I get a school banner?

Requesting a design proof may delay your order. Delivery time depends on the shipping method you choose at checkout.
