Homecoming Queen Poster Ideas

For high school girls vying to be the next homecoming queen, having unique and memorable homecoming queen poster ideas can help them seal a victory.

Different schools may have different methods of deciding who makes it onto the homecoming court, but the most popular method is to let the student body vote on eligible candidates. Before getting your name on the ballot, make sure that your grades are up to par and that you're in good standing.

You want posters that stand out and make students remember them long after the school day is over. When everyone votes on the homecoming court, you want them to recall your posters and your face. Here are some areas to focus on when designing posters that will decorate your school's hallways:

A simple, catchy slogan is key. It should be easy to remember; if you can inject a little humor into it, that's even better. Students who don't know you and don't know who to vote for usually want to choose someone accessible and friendly. Brainstorm with some friends or family to come up with catchy slogan ideas. If your name rhymes with "queen," make up a simple rhyme. You can also tie your slogan into what's hot in pop culture at the moment. Here are some examples:

• Vote for Jean for Homecoming Queen
• Maybe She's Born with It, Maybe It's Royalty – Vote for Charlotte!
• Vote for Kate, She's First Rate

Try to fit your slogan into your school's homecoming theme. For a Hollywood theme, your slogan might be "The Stars are Out Tonight - Vote for Starr, Homecoming Queen." Casino themes may call for a slogan like "P-P-P-Poker Face? No, Christa Chase! Homecoming Queen."

Check with your school's office to see if there are any restrictions on poster size or the number of posters you can tack up around the building. Some schools may allow you to put up as many posters as you like, while others set limits. Make your posters as big as they're allowed to be and put up as many as you can. They should be eye-catching, so choose bright poster board. You can also go with black poster board, but decorate it with bright white letters and glitter for attention-getting contrast.

Once you design your posters, place them in prominent places where the biggest number of students will see them. Areas to put posters include:

• Cafeterias
• Busy hallways
• Courtyards
• Entrances

If you're also allowed to pass out flyers, consider putting your slogan on 8x11 sheets of paper and pass these out to students as they file in and out of the building.

Girls who are artistic can add extra flourishes to their posters. Maybe you can draw tiaras and scepters on them. If your creative skills are lacking, enlist the help of talented friends and family. Other tips to make your posters stand out:

• Make your writing and images big and bold.
• Use glitter pens or glitter for the slogans.
• Include "homecoming queen" as the position you're vying for.
• Use high contrast colors, such as white on black or black on hot pink.

There's no limit on the number of homecoming queen poster ideas you can come up with. Just be creative and let the ideas flow. Once you start a brainstorming session, write down any ideas that pop up – you may not be able to use all of them, or you may need to tweak some, but jot down as many ideas as you can. Enlist the help of artistic and creative friends and family. Once you have some snazzy posters designed, you have to do more than just post them around school. Be friendly and outgoing so that students who don't know you well get to know you and feel good about voting for you. You just might get to wear that coveted tiara come homecoming!
