2011 SENIOR POSTERS
Posters are made to display at the senior party.
Whether you are preparing traditional paper or digital posters, the basics are the same.
POSTERS NEED TO BE VERTICAL
Traditional poster: Use standard size 22” x 28” poster board in Eastview colors; blue, black or
white (smooth surface poster board is best for laminating). Poster board can be found at office
supply stores, copy stores or craft stores …
Digital poster: Get as close to the standard size 22” x 28” as possible. Digital options are available
at all photo centers (Creative Memories, Sam’s Club, Snapfish …)
PICK OUT YOUR PHOTOS
Posters can include your child’s whole life, just their school years, only senior year or some
particular theme – the choice is yours. You may want to make color copies of your photos, since
they will be laminated. It is best to use photo tape, double sided tape or glue sticks. Do not use
scotch or masking tape or rubber cement. Memorabilia and embellishments can be included - on
traditional posters keep items flat due to lamination and on digital, scan the items.
LAMINATION
Traditional & Digital: After construction, laminate the poster (more information and special pricing
will be provided at a later date). We have no preferences between hot or cold lamination.
LABEL YOUR POSTER
Put the student’s name and a cell phone number on the back of the poster after lamination with
permanent marker.
PLANNING SESSIONS
We will offer 3 sessions to help answer any of your questions, provide many examples and assist
you however we can (January, February, and March in the school commons). Information about
the specific dates and times will come through the Eastview daily email announcements. The local
scrapbook stores also offer classes to assist you. There will also be poster examples on the school
website.
DROP OFF POSTER
You will be dropping off posters at the school sometime towards the end of May. Information on
exact date, time and place will be available through the Eastview daily email announcements.
PICK UP POSTER
Your student will bring their poster home with them from the senior party.
The poster is for your senior; it can be simple or elaborate, there is no wrong way.
