School Spirit Wear

School Spirit Wear – Pow-Wows

To the beat of the ancient drums, pow-wows are held on Native American land.

Wearing ceremonial dress, dances are held that speak to the mountains and the skies.

Everyone participates – men, women and children.

The dress and the dances are a form of communication that unites members of the tribe. Years of tradition and beliefs can be seen in the beading and the feathers.

It is part of the Native American culture. School spirit wear has a common purpose.

Groups of students join together at events, wearing school clothing that represents a belief in your school and what it stands for culturally and educationally.

It is a pow-wow of students, and school spirit wear carries on the tradition.

Weaving A History

Native American dress is used as a form of expression. Adornments indicate status within the tribe. The use of Eagle feathers was meant to convey a belief in the qualities of the mighty bird.

Colors can indicate tribal membership. The message is one of history and unity. Spirit wear, though not sacred, uses the same principles to create a supportive student body.

We understand the importance of school fundraising and the challenges you and your group face.
We got tired of doing car washes and bake sales that took all day and raised only a few dollars. So we developed fun, easy fundraiser programs that raised the needed funds, fast. Participation in our programs is simple, safe, efficient, and best of all, free! Whether you are in a club, sports team, school, or any other non-profit group, we are dedicated to helping you achieve your financial goals.

Every school has colors, a logo, a mascot and a rich history of tradition. School spirit wear embraces that tradition. You can even order customized hoodies these days. School fundraisers have been successful in providing students and teachers the ability to order many customized team spirit items.

People like tangible signs of affiliations. This is especially true for students.

When they attend football games or pep rallies or any school competition, it is important that the students project their common cause.

Spirit wear allows students to send the message that they belong to a group and it is a winning school.

AND MORE!

Over the years, spirit wear has grown from simple tee shirts to a range of clothing that has your school slogan or logo.

  • Shirts – Polo shirts and tee-shirts
  • Pants
  • Athletic and jogging suits
  • Hats
  • Visors
  • Sweatshirts
  • Socks
  • Shoes
  • Aprons
  • Jewelry including wrist bands

There is school spirit wear in every kind of clothing and in every size. From infants to senior citizens, spirit wear is popular. Spirit wear is rich in school tradition.

Generations of students have worn the clothing to show support for their school. Like ceremonial dress, spirit wear is symbolic of history and culture.

Seamless Tradition

Spirit wear has a seamless tradition. Since the inception of the school, spirit wear has been used to unify a student body. But all school spirit items serve as advertisement for your school and reaches out to the community.

Fundraising is heavily dependent on spirit wear.

Few fundraising events are held without participants wearing the school logo. But logos do change or are adapted. Each graduating class creates a class theme.

Each year new activities require adaptation of existing spirit symbols. Using experienced spirit wear printers and suppliers can streamline the process.

  • Offers suggestions for artwork
  • Refines school ideas for use on spirit wear
  • Assists with cost containment
  • Provides sample designs
  • Offers pricing charts for quantity discounting

Some printers offer software for sale that your school can use to create its own art designs. Or your school can actually design online. This allows your school to teach students about the printing business while creating school spirit at the same time.

Generational Clothing

Though schools don’t normally hold pow-wows, they do honor tradition passed from one generation to another. School spirit wear is clothing or jewelry that announces the wearer is the newest generation of school supporters.

An abundance of highly charged school spirit is a major factor in the success of any school.

Be creative – wear the modern day ceremonial clothing – and let your school spirit activity show!

School Spirit Week

September 5, 2019 by ilovekids

School Spirit Week

School Spirit Week – Give Me an “Sp”

School spirit week… that special time when youthful exuberance is allowed full expression.

Spirit is a show of energy and enthusiastic support for your school.

It is an opportunity to sing and dance and wear school colors with pride.

There are spirit band sessions, spirit assemblies and spirit teams that have one primary goal.

That goal is to promote school tradition and encourage students to embrace their school as an important part of their life.

Spirit week is about having loads of fun at school. The halls and walls come alive with color and posters and banners.

School Spirit Week – “Give me an “I”

School spirit encourages the use of spirit items as free expression of total school support.

The spirit symbols such as logos and school colors give students something specific to focus their energies on… while showing ownership of your school and its principles.

Parents love this special week as much as students and teachers do. Because parents have a vested interest in the success of their children, it makes them very happy to see students excited and enthused about school activities. So it’s time to stock up your school spirit store.

Spirit week serves as a unifying force, bringing together a multicultural and diverse student body. Spirit week has other benefits also.

  • Creates a sense of school identity
  • Increases student activity and involvement
  • Promotes cooperative effort
  • Creates a single cause for student support
  • Encourages community support
  • Encourages parental involvement
  • Promotes a positive school image

Spirit week can even lay the groundwork for future fundraising projects. When your community sees student enthusiasm and parental support of school activities, donors are much more likely to want to participate in the school’s success.

School Spirit Week – Give Me an “RI”

Planning a spirit week program can include many types of supporting activities.

At most events, students like to wear identifying clothing or articles that show they are a unified group and support their school. Spirit activities and spirit items can take many shapes and forms.

During spirit week you can find logo earrings, colored shoe laces, school emblem caps and many other spirit boosting items.

Ideas for developing and promoting school spirit are limited only by your school’s policies and budget.

The time tested techniques used by many programs to promote school spirit activities are shared among administrators, but let’s remember there’s no harm in “stepping out” a little.

Maybe you’ll want to try new, innovative ideas targeting your special standing in the community. Your school is unique… so let it stand out by using new, creative ways to promote school spirit.

And don’t forget the alumni like to participate in school week activities. They can be some of your school’s most vocal supporters.

School Spirit Week – Give me a “T” and That Spells SPIRIT!

Promoting school spirit can be a most rewarding experience for your students. Spirit week promises lots of fun, camaraderie and joyful celebration.

It also makes a promise that your school will always maintain the students as its focus.

For spirit week is a time when students are the center of attention. They are allowed to show school support in their own way.

Your school can provide plenty of activities and events for them to attend… and students can show the school spirit ideas they feel.

School spirit week might just as well have been called school enthusiasm week.

School Spirit Promotes Student Unity | See the look on their faces.

September 5, 2019 by ilovekids

Join the School Spirit Experience !

School-Spirit – don’t be a spectator

School spirit is contagious.

It’s an idea that has evolved over time. Once, only cheerleaders used it… attempting to rouse the fans.

Today, pride in every school has turned into an entire student body affair.

Spirit isn’t just about cheering for your favorite team anymore.

It’s an inspiration fuse… igniting learning opportunities and improving school morale.

To Quash the Stereotypes

It should be welcome news that school-spirit is not all pompoms and back flips. There are many way’s we’ve learned to boost school-spirit academically too, through subject and classroom competitions.

School Spirit Classroom

Showing spirit and pride in your school can be as simple as attending events and participating in school programs.
However, for teachers that want to encourage more spirit, they can look for ways to motivate students to do something more than just classroom work.
Perhaps the view on school-spirit can be taken out of the ‘rah rah’ mode and focus more on encouraging all bystanders, at your school to become active participants.

What School-Spirit Can Do
School-Spirit is a community event… and aside from getting more people to show up at school events, managed spirit programs can produce tangible results.

Motivated students are more likely to join clubs and participate in school activities. Studies have also shown that students who remain active in their school will get better grades and have improved focus or concentration skills.
The encouragement of school-spirit also helps boost camaraderie among your students and faculty.
This promotes more open communication and a healthy respect for authority.
Students that have spirit are also more likely to attend sporting events and school dances. Full participation in school activities can often result in increased revenue that might be generated from your school spirit store.
Fundraisers usually include school activities that are attended by many family and community members.

It’s a Total School Spirit Experience!
Helping to boost school-spirit is everyone’s business. Custodians, teachers, bus drivers, caefeteria workers, nurses, administrators, etc… Promoting excitement, motivating students, encouraging school cheers and improved learning are gratfying results.

School Spirit

Teachers often focus on creating events that will help the school progress in some special fashion, or gain local media attention.
Teachers at schools such as Greenhurst Elementary do a great job of supporting school spirit events.
Perhaps it’s a charity event that promotes healthy competition among different grade levels. Or an annual athletic event against your chief rival and you’ve planned a special pre game pep rally.
At selected times, in accordance with school policy, students can wear school related clothing and display school spirit items on book covers, bicycles, cars, cups or other school store items to showcase their pride.
While cheerleaders certainly still have their place, school- spirit is something that no one has to try out for. It’s a total community event and those students who display school-spirit should be encouraged through special incentives and school rewards.

School spirit quotes inspire kids to support their school and motivates them too

School Spirit Quotes

School Spirit Quotes – Motivate And Inspire

School spirit can be something that you carry with you throughout your entire life.

School spirit quotes are often inspirational and help motivate kids to not only support their athletic teams, but also inspire them to be the best they can possibly be in many different aspects of their lives.

School Spirit for Team-Building
No matter how you think about it, going to school and growing up to be an adult is a collaborative process.

Not only do students need support from their parents, but they also need support from their teachers and fellow students.

School spirit quotes inspire kids to support their school and motivates them too 11

School spirit quotes are a good way to help children build a sense of community and support around common goals.

For example, quotes can be written on posters or included in daily school announcements. They are a way for students to rally around a common cause and work together for a group goal.

This teaches the value of teamwork and helps leaders develop skills they will use later in life.

School Spirit for Character Building
School spirit quotes inspire kids to support their school and motivates them too 12
School spirit quotes are also a wonderful way to instill positive character traits.

Quotes can reflect desired values in students.

Examples include character traits like honesty, a positive attitude, determination and perseverance.

Spirit quotes can also be a source of learning material for teachers. For example, teachers can have students write papers or essays about what the quote means to them. Another example might be giving students the assignment of coming up with as many ways as they can think of to demonstrate the current school spirit quote.

School Spirit for Personal Development

Using spirit quotes instills personal qualities in students that will follow them throughout their life. Part of the purpose of going to school and participating in school spirit activities is that school spirit not only brings students together, but it also is a way to teach students capabilities that they will use later in life.

Leadership and problem solving skills are examples of things that students can learn from using spirit quotes. Coming together with other students to develop a school spirit campaign can be a wonderful way for students to develop leadership skills. They will learn how to come up with activities for the group, delegate tasks and finish projects. If they run into obstacles along the way, then they can use problem solving skills with the assistance of adults to guide them in the process.

Having school spirit quotes as part of an educational program is a valuable way of helping children develop skills they will use later in life. School spirit does not only apply to supporting an athletic team. It also applies to becoming a cohesive team that works together. School spirit quotes are one of the best methods to help children learn the character qualities that will serve them well as adults in the future.

School Spirit Shirt

September 5, 2019 by ilovekids

Your School Spirit Shirt…

A Message of Pride Right Up Front !

Custom Design or personal design ?
Your school spirit shirt – It’s a natural choice.

Wear your school pride – Show it off.

The message can be as clear as you want. You can design your own shirts to make any acceptable statement.

It’s not only students showing their pride this way. Faculty, administration, family and the community, all enjoy showing off their school spirit.

What better way to root for the home team ? You pick the desired style of your shirt, the color, add your school logo… then devise your slogan, cheer or favorite message.

Slip it on… whether it’s a T-shirt, sweatshirt or something in-between. You’ve made the statement… so stand tall, and show your school shirt pride. You only go down this path once. So have some fun.

We’ve scoured the landscape and if you don’t have a local shirt shop to frequent, here’s a
great online school shirt resource.

Wearing Your Own Kind of Pride

What’s great about a spirit shirt is that you don’t have to go to a school spirit store to get one. You can purchase a plain t-shirt and simply paint or write your message on it. You might want to look for a stencil to make your paint designs or writing a little more crisp.

Many teams like to make their own spirit shirts in order to craft something that is unique to their particular group or activity. For example, perhaps the cheerleaders want to create a cheer oriented shirt along with the mascot or the colors of your school.

If the team doesn’t want to show their artistic side, they can always order a school spirit shirt from a local shirt printing store. These shirts are often quite similar to those found in your school store, as many local printing companies handle that business flow.

And there’s always the choice of going to your school spirit store for the clothing you want.

Often, they are able to specially order styles for you as well as adjust the colors or the labeling if you wish.

This can create a unique shirt with your your special desires.

For those that might wish to just outsource the whole school spirit shirt affair… there are a number of online companies involved in that business.

What to Wear

Of course, you have a lot of options when it comes to the school spirit shirt you buy. You can choose from a sweatshirt, a t-shirt, a tanktop, a fleece jacket, etc.

No matter what kind of clothing you want to wear, there is a school spirit option… so take your time.

You can also find matching hats, scarves, and sweatpants to go along with your shirt if you like – for a whole spirit outfit.

With a school spirit shirt, you can show off your pride or school spirit skits in an individual way…

Design your own shirt… make it yourself. Or… buy your favorite design in the store.

Either way, you’re going to be supporting your favorite team and helping everyone get in the spirit.

School Spirit Skits Draw their Excitement from School Themes

September 5, 2019 by ilovekids

Your school spirit skits are short plays (four to six minutes)… performed in an informal setting.

They simply display various forms of school spirit and come in two basic types… individual and group.

Many school skit presentations are memorable (and can be hilarious)and should be video taped.

Few students, teachers and staff are wannabe actors but all give their best performances…

And that’s what counts.

School Spirit Skits Draw their Excitement from School Themes 18
School spirit skits are usually developed in support of a chosen theme and that adds to the fun potential.

Just imagine some of the skits that could be performed to support the TWIST theme, or HATS or SHOES, or RODEO…

Of course it’s all about promoting school spirit and having a great deal of fun at the same time.

Spirit skits are usually funny and often generate a great deal of excitement in the classroom, gymnasium, lounge, cafeteria or whatever location you have available.

School Skits Are Creative School Spirit
Skits allow students (and the staff too) to be creative, while displaying school spirit.

Let’s use the theme “C.H.A.M.P.I.O.N.S” as an example. (Children with Happy Attitudes Make Positive Influences On Neighborhood Schools)

School Spirit Ideas
The CHAMPIONS theme offers a great opportunity to emphasize citizenship, excellence in the classroom and school environment.

For this theme, students would find creative ways to display Olympic moments, various sports personalities or even Horse racing champions.

School Spirit Activity

School Skits Are Humorous

One of the best things about skits is… the fact that no formal training is needed. As a result, performances can be quite humorous.

But, just because they can be funny, doesn’t necessarily mean they’re easy.

School Spirit Items
Let’s encourage our students along the way… to help to boost their confidence.

School Skits Encourage Teamwork

School spirit involves teamwork, and that’s just one of the many benefits of performing school skits.

As students go through each skit, they will build stronger relationships and communication skills.

They will also learn to build on each others’ strengths.
Skits can have a positive, and dynamic effect on your students (and teachers).

Importance Of School Spirit
This in turn creates a positive learning environment.

Judging School Spirit Skits

Spirit skits can be judged based on the following categories.

  • Creativity
  • Humor
  • Pronunciation
  • Ability to be Heard
  • Delivery of Lines
  • Theme Representation

Finally when it comes to school spirit skits, always remember to have fun and stay positive. You may also want a school spirit shirt or other school spirit merchandise to help plan the fun.

P.S. You can base your spirit skits on any of our themes.
