University & Educational Signage

Transform Your Campus With Custom School Signs

At the start of a new school year, your campus buzzes with excitement. For newcomers, navigating a sprawling campus or even unfamiliar halls can be overwhelming. That’s where great school signs come in.

A school sign is more than words on a wall or banners in the air. Effective signage in schools serves a multitude of functions—from guiding students, faculty, and visitors safely around campus with wayfinding signage to building a sense of community and belonging with banners and murals that showcase school pride. The goal is to create a vibrant, organized, and engaging campus environment.

Outdoor & Indoor Signage for Universities and Schools

Color Reflections has worked with education institutions at every level, from the University of Pennsylvania to local high schools and middle schools, to print and install eye-catching, custom school signs that are durable, informational, and inclusive, catering to all abilities and ages.

Expert Large Format Printing

Whether it’s an outdoor sign for schools like a fence banner for an upcoming event, indoor glass treatments for stadiums, or a five-story building wrap celebrating school pride, Color Reflections offers a comprehensive suite of signage solutions tailored to the unique needs of educational institutions:

Banners and Flags: Custom banners to promote college events, celebrate achievements, or welcome students and faculty. Choose from fabric, vinyl, or mesh, depending on the location and function.

Murals and Wall Graphics: Transform blank walls into vibrant displays of school history, achievements, larger-than-life mascot murals, or inspirational landscapes featuring local landmarks.

Wayfinding Signage: A must-have school sign, our directional signage solutions ensure easy navigation across sprawling campuses. From building directories and to bathroom and classroom locators, these wayfinding signs can be hanging banners, wall-mounted or freestanding signage, or even ground graphics.

Window Graphics: Utilize every part of your building with informational and decorative window graphics that catch the eye without sacrificing natural light. Choose from perforated, opaque, clear, or frosted substrates.

Dimensional Signage: Add depth to your messaging with custom 3D signs that stand out and withstand the test of time. Consider large freestanding 3D signage for bold outdoor messaging or dimensional lettering on buildings for a sleek and modern look.
Floor Graphics: Direct pedestrian traffic or decorate with durable, non-slip graphics that can guide and inform while being completely on-brand. From footsteps to paw prints (depending on your mascot), have fun with ground graphics around campus.
Custom Fabrication: Not every type of signage fits into a neat category. Our experts can print, ship, and install standees, cutouts, and other custom signage made from durable substrates such as acrylic, gator board, falcon board, and more for special events, school functions, or classroom needs.

We choose materials that are durable and designed to enhance visibility and impact. So, our products withstand the rigors of high-traffic environments, which are typical in educational settings. We combine our decades of knowledge of signage design with an understanding of educational environments to create solutions that meet both aesthetic and functional needs.

Why Is Large Format Signage Important for Schools?

In an increasingly competitive arena where schools are looking to attract students and faculty, school signage is the first impression visitors get when they step on your campus. You want to make a bold statement, but also show off your school’s personality. Our team can help you strike the perfect balance.

Here’s how great signage makes a difference:

Clear navigation - A well-placed sign can make all the difference when someone is trying to find the admissions office, school library, or a particular classroom. Wayfinding and directional signage can be wall-mounted, hanging, or freestanding (especially for large areas between campus buildings).
Event promotion - Events are a year-round necessity for schools. Use signage to promote a theater production, career fair, registration events, rush week, spirit day, fraternity or sorority socials, and more.
Sports promotion - Get everyone hyped up for the big game with a large banner or ground graphics! There are also opportunities within stadiums, fields, weight rooms, and locker rooms to showcase mascots and branding, provide inspirational messaging, feature sponsors and donors, and more.
ADA Compliant Signage - ADA-compliant signage for schools features Braille for visually impaired individuals, high-contrast visuals for those with low vision, and easy-to-read typefaces and acrylic pictograms for clear communication. By choosing ADA-compliant signs and wall plaques for classrooms, restrooms, elevators, and throughout your campus, you not only follow federal regulations but also demonstrate your commitment to a barrier-free, inclusive learning environment.
