Why School Spirit is so Important

Materials to Enhance School Signage & Awards 

 

School spirit is important because it helps the student body and faculty feel like a family unit. It builds friendships and companionships among peers. It instills discipline especially in regards to academics and behavior and has a lasting effect on one's behavior when at or not at school. It can strengthen communities and patriotism therefore creating a favorable learning environment.

 

It is important to display school spirit in all aspects possible.  Enhancing school signage and offering unique trophies and awards can have lasting positive effects.  We offer a wide variety of materials to display school spirit including awards, school badges, stadium and locker room signage, or anywhere your local high schools, colleges and universities want to show their school spirit!

The 2014 Signs of the Times International Sign Contest will be published in next April's issue, and, for the second year, will also include a Readers' Choice gallery. For this, the readers are given an opportunity to select their favorites via three online, interactive polls, which will be unveiled in January. The first two will separate electric and non-electric signs, and the third will include the top three finishers from each of the previous two polls and determine the Readers' Choice champion.
