In May 2023, the Logo Redesign Committee, comprised of students, parents, staff, alums, and community members, completed the new Spring Grove Area School District logo. They worked diligently with Jostens for several months to create a logo embodying our Rocket spirit.

The Committee deliberately selected a design that would honor our past while modernizing the overall look of the logo. The block lettering may feel familiar to you as various versions have been used since before the 1950s. The new logo unifies the District's visual identity and evokes a feeling of spirit, tradition, and engagement everyone can rally behind.

You'll notice the Committee opted to have a primary and secondary logo, as shown below. Whereas the primary logo is the district's main identifying mark, the secondary logo provides some design flexibility, especially with things like signage and spirit wear.

The new logo will be phased in over time throughout our schools and campuses as things need replacing, repainting, refurbishing, etc. 

We thank you for your trust, support, and patience as we took on this project to visually distinguish SGASD.
