Beyond designing pieces for themselves and their peers, teachers often create custom school pins to encourage and award their students for reaching certain milestones.

June is graduation season. All school levels, ranging from pre-school to college will be marking the end of a learning cycle. This is often celebrated with some form of ceremony. It’s a wonderful way for families and friends to come together to honor students. And what better way to honor students than with our commemorative pins. Custom graduation pins celebrate all of the hard work and success students have put into their education.
Calling all graduates! Do you want something to remember your school by? Graduating from a particular school always leaves a certain sense of pride in the graduate. Pins are a fun keepsake to be forever affiliated with their alma mater as an alumnus. The former student may even be inspired to contribute to their school for years to come. This can include participation in alumni associations, reunions, events, and fundraisers.
