California Gold Ribbon Schools Logo

California Gold Ribbon Schools downloadable logo for use by California Gold Ribbon Schools Awardees.

California Gold Ribbon (GR) Schools Awardees are encouraged to publicize their status by using the California GR Schools logo and by identifying themselves as recipients of this award.

Schools may use the California GR Schools logo to advertise their award in many ways, such as on letterhead, newsletters, websites, banners, signage, clothing designs, etc.

Schools recognized as a California GR Schools Awardee hold the California GR Schools Title for two years. Schools must include the year of their award when publicizing their status, irrespective of logo use. For example, Name of School, a 2017 California Gold Ribbon School, is correct usage, because the year of the award is coupled with the California GR status in the statement.

Schools must use the California GR Schools logo with the official colors only or in black and white or grayscale, provided to accommodate non-color printing. Schools may not alter the logo design or content.
