How to Decorate School Hallways with Bulletin BOards

Display student work: Stick up clipboards or bright laminated sheets of cardstock to display students’ work. For sticking these items to the wall, check out this post to see how to to hang them on cinder block walls. Use clothes pins at the tops and hot glue cute cut-outs over them. Place masking tape on the back of the paper fans, then add hot glue to the masking tape rather than the fan itself. This will help with keeping them intact so you can use them again for another school year.

Make a large bulletin board for school announcements: Any upcomming school event and important notices can be posted on a announcement bulletin board in the school hallway for both parents and students to see.

This school hallway corner has an impressive welcome bulletin board that is just a tower of the letters in the word ‘welcome’. It looks like a Spring themed bulletin board with the leaf and cloud cut outs, and the borders of the posters have rainbow colors.
