Welcoming students back to school is crucial for their emotional well-being, as indicated by studies. Print out our free Welcome Back to School poster with your color poster maker, to display at curriculum night and during the first weeks of school to help students feel welcome and wanted on campus. A great way to display posters at the front of school is with a Easy Snap A-Frame that is free-standing or with an Easy Snap Frame that can be mounted to the front entrance!

Creating a warm and inclusive environment can help ease the transition and foster a sense of belonging. Simple gestures like greeting students at the door, decorating classrooms with vibrant, welcoming themes via your color poster maker printer, and organizing icebreaker activities can make a significant difference. A simple smile and warm greeting of students at the classroom door can lead to an increase in engagement and a decrease in disruptive behavior, leading to a better academic performance. In the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, it was shown that greeting your students each day can lead to an increase in student engagement, and many teachers have also found that classroom greetings can lead to better behavior, a more positive classroom atmosphere, and a sense of community among students. A free resource is our printable welcome door sign to get started! Feel free to print from a desktop printer to display on the classroom door for ‘Meet the Teacher’ and keep up through the first few weeks for students to easily find their class. If you would like to mount it (without nails or screws) and have a more finished look, consider putting the print in an EasyBoard display that can be reused!

Additionally, integrating social-emotional learning (SEL) into the curriculum can equip students with essential skills to manage their emotions, build healthy relationships, and make responsible decisions. Moreover, involving students in setting classroom norms and goals can empower them, making them feel valued and heard. By prioritizing these aspects, schools can create a nurturing atmosphere where students thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. To encourage a sense of school family/community, our free School Goal poster enables a visual way to work together on a common goal and see progress.
