Award Templates for Students

Teachers work hard to establish inclusive classroom communities where their students feel supported, seen and heard. Learning involves risk-taking and students are better prepared to take risks, challenge themselves, grow and learn in an environment that is supportive and nurturing. Creating this type of setting takes dedication and is evident in practically everything that teachers do! From getting to know their students on a personal level, supporting their individual learning styles, setting ground rules and boundaries, providing feedback and encouragement, teachers are constantly working to establish and maintain a classroom environment that supports students both academically and emotionally.

One way to help with this endeavor is to make a habit of acknowledging students' progress. Everyone needs to feel appreciated and valued. Student award certificates are one way to achieve this! These awards templates can be customized to be beautiful acknowledgements of any superlative or achievement. Classroom awards for students might be in the form of prizes, privileges, or certificates. These printable awards for students can be easily customized and displayed digitally or printed. Teachers love to acknowledge students' hard work and students love to feel seen and appreciated!

Psst! These awards templates don't have to be just for students! They can easily be customized and used for teachers, administrators, support staff, cafeteria staff, custodians, parent helpers and anyone in the school or classroom that deserves recognition!

Custom Student Awards

Why are they important and how are they best used.

Greatness deserves to be recognized, that is why creating a superlative certificate template is an excellent idea!

Present an award certificate to a student, classroom or teacher who deserves recognition for something they have done or progress made. Many teachers like to present superlatives at the end of the term, mid year or end of the year to help motivate students and build a positive classroom community. Each printable class awards template is completely customizable, you can change the colors, design, artwork and add your own text! Storyboard That’s award templates for students are so easy (and fun!) to create and use.

There are so many ways to use these templates. Typically, students are given awards for achieving high marks on their report cards. Often awards are given out at the end of the year during graduation or a final assembly. These awards are perfect for that! However, the fun doesn't have to stop there! There are so many ways to acknowledge students' growth throughout the school year. Celebrating everyday victories and progress over time is so important to also acknowledge. Boost your students' confidence and encourage a community of learners!

Students of all ages do their best when they can feel proud of their accomplishments and their hard work, unique strengths and individual talents are acknowledged! These awards will lift their spirits and encourage others to take risks and try their best as well! Show your students how much you care by creating a printable awards certificate today!

Print these award certificates and present them in person. You can even laminate them for longevity. These can also be downloaded and presented digitally, sent in an email or posted to your school's social media.Your students will be excited to see their name in bold fancy lettering on the award and be able to display it for their friends, families and caregivers.

To create an award certificate, choose a superlatives awards template above! Once you're in the Storyboard Creator, click on each of the elements on the student award template to change them to fit your needs. When you're done, hit "Save & Exit"! You can print your superlative awards for students right away, or keep them in your storyboard library until you are ready to use them.

How to Use the Certificate Maker

Creating a certificate is really easy with our free online certificate maker. You do not need any software and do not need any experience designing awards. You can create certificate templates that look custom-made for free and within minutes. Use our free certificate examples to start and then customize each sample certificate to adapt it to your needs. To see examples of certificates for each category go to the specific category.

• Select the design that you like best from any of the above templates.
• Click on the image and wait for the free online certificate maker to open.
• Edit the title and all other text. Just click on the dummy text and type in the text that you want to appear.
• Click on save or print.

Ribbons for Awards

Each template for awards has a sample ribbon on it. However, when you open the certificate maker you can change the ribbon. You can choose a different style or color. You can also drag the ribbon to a different place or make it bigger or smaller. There are generic ribbons, first-place ribbons, winner ribbons, etc.

The certificate samples have generic text that you can edit. You can edit the text and the font. You can also move the text around. If you want to create a blank award, then delete the text. To delete text, click on the text you want to delete and then click on the trash can icon.

Certificate Format

Each award template has a generic format. However, you can change each format of a certificate by editing the text, changing the font, moving the text, etc. Open the online certificate designer and select any design to use as the initial template. Then go to the award ribbons category. Then click on any ribbon to add it to the template.

Printing Certificates

To print a certificate, first, download it to your PC. Choose either the image format or the PDF format. You can print certificate templates directly from the certificate designer but many people experience difficulties that they do not encounter when they download the award template and then print it. Certificate printing can be done at home or with a basic printer. However, if you want a more professional look, you might prefer to get it professionally printed. If you use quality paper the printed certificates will look more professional than they will with standard paper. You don’t need special certificate printers just set your resolution to the highest your printer will allow you to print at.

These templates below are general designs that can be used for student of the month, star student certificates, attendance awards, most improved student, rewarding homework completion or better classroom performance. However, I have subject specific designs as well:
