How teachers use it

Library doors and book-fair entrances
Main hallways and cafeteria announcements
Classroom doors the week of the fair
A family-night reminder near pickup lines

Swap the dates each year when you rebuild the layout in Canva, or print the PDF as a colorful sample and add your details on a printed overlay. The family-night line can also hold a preview-night or volunteer ask.

For the sharpest result, print it on a poster printer at 300 DPI. Our printers are Canva-ready, Wi-Fi capable and Title I / Title IV-A eligible, with setup under 30 minutes and 500+ templates included. Need the printer, ink and paper together? See our poster maker packages. Schools can also request free sample posters by mail.

See it on the wall

A 24×36 poster is big enough to read from across a room or down a hallway. Print a test at 12×18 first if you want to check spelling and colors before you print the full size.
