02Design & campaign setup

What can be customized?

Each participating group receives its own custom Spirit Yard Sign design.

Depending on the approved design, signs can incorporate your school or organization name, team name, colors, logo, mascot, and spirit message.

Families can also personalize the sign with the student, athlete, or participant name.

How is the sign design created?

After your group submits the Spirit Yard Sign Campaign Setup Form, SchoolSpark uses the information and artwork provided to create your custom design.

A digital proof will be sent to your designated representative for review and approval before the campaign goes live.

When does the campaign go live?

Your preferred launch date is submitted through the campaign setup form.

SchoolSpark will review your information, prepare the design, and confirm your official campaign launch date by email. The campaign will not go live until the final sign design has been approved.

How long can our campaign stay open?

You can choose your preferred ordering period when setting up the campaign.

Common campaign lengths include:

  • 1 week
  • 2 weeks
  • 3 weeks
  • 4 weeks

SchoolSpark will confirm the final campaign dates with you before launch.

03Ordering & personalization

How do families and supporters order?

Once the sign design is approved, SchoolSpark creates a dedicated ordering page for your school, team, club, or organization.

You will receive both a unique ordering link and QR code to share through email, newsletters, flyers, social media, team communications, school events, games, practices, or other channels.

Families and supporters use the link or scan the QR code to place their order, provide the name they would like personalized on the sign, and pay directly through SchoolSpark.

Does our group need to collect payments?

No. SchoolSpark handles ordering and payments directly.

Your school or organization does not need to collect cash, checks, payment information, or individual order forms.

How is personalization submitted?

The purchaser provides the name they would like printed on the sign during the ordering process.

Names will be printed according to the information submitted, so purchasers should carefully review spelling before placing the order.

What happens when the campaign closes?

Once the ordering period closes, SchoolSpark organizes the final orders and personalization information and prepares the order for production.

04Production & delivery

What is the turnaround time?

After the campaign closes and the final print proof is approved, production generally takes approximately 5 business days, depending on the size of the order.

Shipping time is additional and may vary based on the final quantity and delivery location. SchoolSpark will keep your group informed throughout the process and provide delivery information once the signs have shipped.

When should we plan our campaign?
