Signage for Schools & Education
From district high schools to elementary buildings to higher education — CorPro is the local sign shop schools across Northern Illinois call when they need it done right.
Overview
Schools have unique signage requirements: ADA compliance, district branding consistency, durability in high-traffic hallways, monument signs that have to read from the parking lot at pickup time. We've been doing this work for two decades — Hononegah Community High School, NIU, Rock Valley College, Challand Middle School, H.H. Conrady, Ardmore Elementary, and dozens more.
Every school project goes through the same in-house team. We measure on site, coordinate with district facilities, handle ADA documentation, and install with our own crew — so the work doesn't get held up in subcontractor schedules.
What we do for schools & education
The signage work schools & education actually need.
Mascot and identity wall murals
Dimensional mascot installations and full-wall printed murals — like the Hononegah Chief wall. Painted, printed, or fabricated to match district brand standards.
Building identification
Architectural-scale dimensional letters mounted to brick, panel, or pre-cast — built to be legible from the parking lot or street.
ADA-compliant wayfinding & room IDs
Full ADA room ID packages — Grade 2 braille, raised tactile copy, ANSI/ICC A117.1 documented. Plus directories, hallway directionals, and stairwell IDs.
Dedication & donor plaques
Cast bronze and aluminum plaques for building dedications, donor walls, and capital campaign recognition.
Athletic & event branding
Building banners, gym wall graphics, vinyl banners for games and events, and brand kits for athletic departments.
Selected projects
Real CorPro work in schools & education.
