District Branding

More than 74,000 students. 116 campuses. One community.

We are unique—yet unified.

Diversity is our strength, but every ¼öƬapp communication shares a common goal: to be effective as a trusted source of timely and relevant information for our communities.

As Austin’s school district, we stand for innovation and diversity, for excellence and equity in education.

The district’s brand—its identity—reflects values, which are deeply rooted in Austin:

  • high expectations
  • creativity, collaboration and innovation
  • equity, diversity and inclusion
  • health and safety
  • lifelong learning
  • community schools and
  • a focus on the whole child—and every child.
  • ¼öƬapp embraces a community of 116 schools with individual programs, perspectives and personalities.

Everything we do communicates—from the words we print to the way we answer the phone, from the photos we post to the colors and typography we use, from the events we celebrate to the programs and people we highlight.

Every day, schools, offices and departments create timely and tailored communications for their communities, including letters, invitations, flyers, brochures, posters and websites which all promote and celebrate the district's unique brand. 

All communications should be designed with our communities’ needs in mind. Every communication should reflect the trust our families and stakeholders have placed in us.
