THE “LOOK” OF RENAISSANCE

You can “feel” the attitude and climate; you can “see” the culture of a Jostens Renaissance school. These best practices are designed to show all school stakeholders Renaissance through visual cues throughout school campus areas. Décor and designs of the front office and gym lobbies; visuals of murals and displays in the hallways, offices, bathrooms, outside walls, sidewalks, and other commons areas; and student “wearables” such as t-shirts and lanyards – all these elements make up the look and feel of a Renaissance school.
