Logo Design Brief
Our online international Christian high school for vulnerable students places a strong emphasis on trauma-informed principles, social-emotional learning (SEL), and spiritual development, alongside academic rigor.
One of our key differentiators is our focus on enrolling students who are likely to have experienced:
1) Disrupted enrollment
2) A porous academic foundation (e.g., learning gaps or difficulties)
3) Multiple Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)
4) Poverty or limited access to technology and other resources
Serving this population presents unique challenges, not only in enrollment but also in retention. These students are at high risk of discontinuing their education due to external factors beyond their control—such as war, relocation or refugee status, or living in orphanages or institutions—or internal factors, including low self-worth, distorted beliefs or a fixed mindset, mental health struggles, or pressure to prioritize work over education.
Our mission is to provide a holistic and healing academic experience. Our logo design should reflect:
- Strength
- Resilience
- Potential
- Belonging
- would like to see stacked and horizontal variants
- use trauma informed color palette - choose among: 5A7D5A, A3A18A, D8C3A5, secondary 73A9AD, 222922, D4A373, A3B18A
