Questions people ask
What is a star student?
A star student award is an informal classroom honour for a child who stood out for effort, behaviour or progress. Unlike honor roll, it does not depend on grades.
Which design suits young children?
Playful in Teal & Coral or Blue & Sunshine: rounded letters, confetti and bright colours. Set the seal text to STAR.
Can I print several stars on one page?
Each certificate is a full page. To save cardstock, download PNGs and place two per sheet in Word or Google Docs, then trim.
