IntroductionBuilding our brand
School districts are a reflection of the communities they serve. We serve a very diverse St. Louis Metro community area comprised of local, military, rural environment. Our district is just minutes east of St. Louis, Mo. in southwestern Illinois. The Metro-East region where we reside offers plentiful residential options, outstanding cultural attractions, and great transportation amenities.
OTHS is unique with an impressive academic reputation. Our challenge is to maintain the current culture of excellence while moving forward. With a dedicated staff, a supportive community and terrific students, we will continue the district’s high standard of performance. Our goal is to remain an acknowledged leader in public education in the southwestern Illinois region.
Our job is to help develop a community of learners in partnership with parents and guardians. Today’s students - perhaps more than all generations before them - must be adaptable. The amount of information available to them and the methods in which they are expected to use it changes rapidly and grows exponentially. As technology evolves, the world changes - sometimes in the blink of an eye. Our challenge is to continue to improve programs and ensure their relevance for today’s students.
District #203 offers the best for our students: a highly trained staff, clean, modern facilities, outstanding technology and a wide range of extra-curricular activities. We provide “Excellent in Education for Every Student Every Day”.

PROPRIETARY INFORMATIONBrand Identity Guidelines4
IntroductionUsing the brand identity guidelines O’Fallon Township High School (OTHS) brand identity is the tangible expression of all that we stand
for. It embodies what we do, how we do it and why we are trusted throughout the communities we serve. In a very real way, members of our communities, our partners, and our investors experience the OTHS brand through our deeds, as well as through the verbal and visual messages we send.
A carefully managed and well-implemented brand identity program will help carry our brand message to the world. These guidelines are provided to ensure the correct and consistent use of the brand identity system. Along with the brandmark, typography, color palette and other visual elements, specific directions are included to help you manage your visual communication materials. By accurately implementing this brand identity system, you protect the equity of the OTHS brand and better support its repositioning.
The most fundamental visual element of a brand identity is its brandmark. The new OTHS brandmark signals a change for a new approach to the future.
The evolution of our brandmark is most dramatic in its new configuration. The symbols are now coordinated with the OTHS name in a bold alliance. Its integrated brand look is unifying and inviolable.
The changes to these key elements are intended to express new brand characteristics—innovative, dynamic and results oriented—characteristics that we need to help us achieve our school community impact and mission.

Brandmark usageBrandmark Elements
The consistent and correct application of the OTHS brandmark is essential. At times the primary horizontal format may not be best suited for application. In these situations it is acceptable to use the vertical format. The icon alone can be used as a graphic element or later by itself when you feel your brandmark is established.

This may occur when reproducing on plastic, glass, metal, fabric or other materials used for merchandise or signage. For printed materials, these brandmarks may only be used when the method of reproduction is faxing and photocopying or the surface of the paper is a color other than white.

Brandmark usageTagline: Flexible placement
You may choose not to lock up the tagline with the brandmark. However, in order to protect the integrity of the brandmark and tagline, you must place both on the same page in the size proportions indicated. The brandmark and tagline is placed at the same distance from the edge of the application. You may place both elements anywhere along their edge as long as you maintain the distance and the size relationship prescribed. However, it is preferred that the brandmark and tagline appear in close proximity, especially when there is a large body of copy on the same page. Greater flexibility of placement is allowed when there is little or no body copy on the page.
