Chandler High School is one of the oldest Arizona high schools that are currently in existence. Yet with the May 28 Austin Field graduation celebration in the rearview mirror, there is more that changes at the school than the senior class. In fact, this school is one recipient of the new marquee school signs in Chandler, AZ.
Contacting Spotlight Signs and Imaging Solutions to do the work, we took down the old sign on Monday. Since we know that this is quite a bit of change for the proud Wolves and everyone associated with Chandler High, we thought it would be fun if all of you could follow along the process that will culminate in the installation of one of the new changeable letter board signs for schools in Chandler, AZ.
Check out our Facebook page and see the 10 photos that we have already posted of the marquee’s take-down. Our current goal for the installation of the new sign is July. We are coordinating with the landscapers who will beautify the spot where the marker sits, which will truly change the way that students, parents and passersby will see the school on the first day of the next school year – and for the 100-year anniversary celebration that is coming up as well!
If you are a school administrator and thinking of adding a new marquee sign with changeable letters at your venue as well, you should know that this is one of the most cost-effective and practical signage solutions you can select.
- Excellent visibility. Since the sign is usually elevated, it is easily seen by oncoming traffic. If your school is situated in a more residential locale, you can get away with less height. Whether standing tall or close to ground, these signs are easy to see for anyone.
- Great flexibility. Change your message as needed. While the branding portion of the sign does not change, the message board portion lets you define what information you want the community to have. Advertise school start and ending dates, graduation ceremony locales, fundraisers and sports achievement of your team.
- Blends in with the landscape. The sign becomes a part of your landscape setup. Design a flowerbed around the marker, add shrubs or even consider the addition of some trees to pick up the atmosphere a bit.
If you are unsure whether to stick with your current school marquee design or try something that is radically different, talk to our experienced school signage experts. We can show you sketches of possible signs and highlight how these designs would fit into the look and overall frontage design of your property. Moreover, we can show you how different signage types will affect the way that you get your information out.
Once you have decided on a basic design, we discuss the height, width and color options. Of course, you do want the school’s name, logo and mascot proudly displayed at the top of the sign. Or perhaps you would prefer a setup that lets you display the name at the top and the mascot on the side? Customizing your sign is easy!
