THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A STYLE GUIDE
 

The purpose of Yukon Public Schools having a style guide is to create a consistent image that builds a brand identity for the district. This is done by having a structure in place that will provide all users of Yukon Public Schools logos with the best tools to ensure consistency of its branding image. By doing this, it creates a distinct and affective brand that sets Yukon Public Schools apart from others.


THE REASON WHY THE LOGOS ARE TRADEMARKED

Yukon Public Schools has trademarked the logos to ensure that their safety is in the hands of the district. The district encourages all community members to use any YPS brandings as long as it reflects school-appropriate ideals and expectations. Yukon Public Schools felt the need to create a style guide to help anyone using YPS branding have all the tools and information needed to represent its brand. 


LOGOS AND WHAT ALTERATIONS ARE ALLOWED

The logos at Yukon Public School are designed to remain intact to maintain brand identity. There are cases where a logo’s color can be changed, but the design of each logo must not be altered. For example, if a school or program is purchasing t-shirts, they are allowed to have the Yukon logo they choose to be outlined in the color that is already used for the shirt, so if the shirt is yellow with designs in green, the outline of the logo will have permission to be that color.  


HOW YPS LOGOS SHOULD BE REPRESENTED
 

The goal of Yukon Public Schools’ marketing is to share all the things that make its schools the top in the state while highlighting its community support, which is second to none. With that being said, YPS would like to further add to that support by having one of the four approved logos in the style guide displayed on all YPS merchandise that is designed to represent the school. For example, YPS schools or programs buying merchandise must have one of the four approved logos from the style guide on it. There are exemptions for certain items or colors. If you believe your design falls in that category, please contact [email protected] or your supervisor for written approval.

THE COMMUNITY OF YUKON AND YPS LOGOS

Yukon Public Schools’ top priority when making this style guide was to guarantee its community had free and unlimited access to its logos. YPS fully supports and allows any community business or organization to use its logos as long it reflects school-appropriate ideals and expectations. The goal for the style guide is to have all YPS logos in perfect harmony with one another and no inconsistencies throughout any logo used, representing the schools. The logos can be found on the YPS website www.yukonps.com or to request any files of the school logo please contact [email protected].
