Named one of the top public schools in the nation by Newsweek in 2012, Niles West is a public four-year high school located in Skokie, Illinois. Home of the Niles West Wolves, athletic programs compete in the Central Suburban League or CSL.
Kendall Griffin is the Director of Athletics at Niles West and entering his third year at this respected educational institution. Within the playing fields he saw opportunities to boost school spirit with windscreen banners and bleacher graphics. Vendors had been in touch but finding the right creative partner was turning into an ongoing homework assignment!
It was very important to earn the trust of school boosters and Mike personally visited the school to conduct a site survey. Kendall and school boosters had numerous ideas, but did not have a designer. Mike recommended Michelle Ward, a Cushing color coordinator with a keen eye for graphic design (and skills to match).
Creative and the installation came together quickly after the introduction.
The installation was complete prior to the start of the football season.
Between boosters who support the school & creative ideas of the athletic department, much more! Discussions have included additional windscreens and visitor side bleacher graphics.
