District Brand & Logo Usage
Norwin School District has developed brand guidelines as a strategic step to ensure brand uniformity. When creating print or online marketing materials, please refer to these guidelines, so that together, we can continue to build a stronger, consistent brand presence for Norwin School District.
The current NSD Logos (shown above) are an officially registered trademark of the Norwin School District. Any district-affiliated group or for-profit business wishing to use Norwin's official logo is required to enter into a trademark licensing agreement.
If the logo is misused or misrepresented in any way, such actions will be subject to legal penalties as allowed by law. Anyone interested in obtaining permission to use the NSD Logo is asked to contact Ms. Lauren Steiner via the form below to make a request. Once a request has been approved, specific files will be shared.
