5 Bulletin Boards You Can Keep Up All Year Long!

5 Bulletin Boards You Can Keep Up All Year Long!


School counselors typically have a love-hate relationship with bulletin boards. They love how they look, but thinking of an idea, putting them up and changing them throughout the year can be a challenge. I am here to help with inspiration and some relatively easy to assemble bulletin boards that you could leave up ALL YEAR LONG! Some of the bulletin boards I included below have been up for YEARS at my school 

My hope is that you can get a bulletin board up and not have to think about it. You can get back to work supporting students while having welcoming and engaging bulletin boards!

Click on the images or links below to access everything you need to re-create each of these 5 bulletin boards. Need more bulletin board inspiration? The School Counselor Blog search allows you to find even more FREE resources and ideas. Here are all the bulletin boards on SCB. 

"We Are So Glad You Are Here!" Bulletin Board




I have had this "We Are So Glad You Are Here!" Bulletin Board up for multiple years at my school. Or maybe it was two school years ago... Oh my! I just looked and I have had it up since 2021! I lost count! It still looks great and has a great message in the main hallway of our school.

"Welcome Back" Bulletin Board



This "Welcome Back Students" bulletin board is super quick and easy. It is also editable so you could put your school name or a different message in the "welcome back" portion. All the words are also editable.

"Sprinkle Kindness Everywhere!" Bulletin Board


Sprinkle Kindness Everywhere Bulletin Board

I created this bulletin board on year for Random Acts of Kindness Week, but it is one you could keep up all year long. 

"Be the One" Bulletin Board



"Be the One" Bulletin Board

This quick and easy bulletin board starter will inspire students to BE the ONE. Use this as part of “Start with Hello Week” or anytime of the year!

"Pop in to See the School Counselor" Bulletin Board




This is another bulletin board/display that I have had up for YEARS. You can make this smaller or bigger than the one featured. This is a great way to let students know where you are and what you can help with! You could even personalize this by adding your Bitmoji!

Friendship Bracelet Style Bulletin Board --- *Bonus - Bulletin Board #6 ;) 


Friendship Bracelet Style Bulletin Board

I just posted about this EDITABLE Friendship Bracelet Style Bulletin Board that I created. This is another one that could be kept up ALL YEAR LONG... or even multiple years.

Take What You Need, Give What You Can Sticky Note Board

Image
Last year, I saw a lot of "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" Bulletin Boards popping up everywhere. I decided to fuel my new found love of printing on sticky notes and make a sticky note version. The idea behind the "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" board is that you take a positive message that you "need" to hear or "give" (write) a positive or uplifting message for someone else to take. I displayed the "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" sticky note board on a window near the school counseling office. A traditional bulletin board could also be used to display this sticky note board.  I created 18 different positve messages to print on sticky notes for the "Take What You Need" side of the board. To make this "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" sticky note board, you will need the following items: A printer Printer paper to print the sticky...

Spring Mindfulness Bulletin Board with QR Codes

Image
I created this colorful, interactive, spring bulletin board for our March & April PBIS theme, mindfulness. I made this bulletin board interactive for students by adding QR Codes with different mindfulness activities. Since most things need to be touch-less right now, I thought using QR Codes would be an easy way for students to access some mindfulness activities. If you are not familiar with QR Codes, QR stands for Quick Response. QR Codes are scannable with a smart device camera (iPad, tablet, or smart phone). you can easily make your own QR codes by using a QR Code generator. You can link the QR Code to a website or online document. When the user scans the QR Code they will be directed to the link. I used  QR Code Generator  to create the QR Codes.  I got the idea for this bulletin board while looking for mindfulness resources. I stumbled upon a New York Times article about "Pinwheel Breathing." This sent me down a rabbit hole of brainstormin...

FREE Career Interest Games and Inventories on VA Career View

Image
I have been searching for fun and interactive career activities to facilitate with students this year. I rediscovered  Virginia Career View , which has a wealth of computer based and printable career activities. I have used this website many times, but each time I visit I am surprised by how truly awesome this site is. In the K-5 Section of  Virginia Career View  there is an interactive game called  Career Town ! I used the  Career Town  game with some 5th grade students last year and they loved it. Career Town has three levels with different games to learn about jobs on each level.  The  Career Town  has an educators guide  for each "level' of the game. The  educators guide  has ideas of how you can utilize the game to meet standards and includes ideas for extension activities.  In the 6-8 Grade section, there is a career cluster assessment activity called "Who R U?" . It is web-based. The Vi...
