If you've recently been elected to a leadership position at your school's student council, you'll quickly realize that you have a long list of jobs to tackle. One thing for which you'll want to make time is producing custom shirts for you and your fellow student council members to wear around school. Doing so has a number of benefits — each member will take pride in wearing his or her garment, and other students who see these shirts may take more of an interest in running for student council in the future. Consider the following topics when you produce these shirts.
School Information
You'll definitely want to include some information about your school in the design for your student council shirts. There are many different approaches that you can take. One option is to have the name and logo of the school featured on the front of the shirt — for example, have the name across the chest with the logo beneath it. If you want the back of the garment to appear more vibrant, having the school's name across the shoulders may be an idea that appeals to you.
Student Council Details
It's important to make reference to the student council when you work on your custom shirt design. One option is to simply include the student council name and the current school year in a universal design that each member can wear. For example, below the name of the school, your shirt design could read, "Student Council — 2020/2021." If you want to take a custom approach, you can have different shirts for different members. For example, you could have the person's first or last name and his or her title — "President," "Vice President," "Treasurer," or something equivalent, below the name. This idea requires more work and may cost a little more, but the customization can be appealing to you and your fellow members.
Multiple Shirts
It's a fun idea to produce multiple styles of shirts for you and your student council peers — perhaps after voting on what shirt designs you collectively like the best. While a T-shirt and a hoodie will almost certainly be popular choices, there are other styles that the custom shirt company can likely offer. Some student council members may prefer raglan shirts, while others may favor tank tops. For the latter, you'll need to ensure that this type of garment meets your school's dress code before placing your order.
