Derby High School Projects
Main Entrance Photo Background &
Student Store

These projects were a fun addition to the work we have done at DHS. For photos that would be posted to social media, news sites etc. there was a need to have a place where pictures could be taken instead of just in front of a brick wall. This 8ft x 8ft LED backlit panel background was designed to have the same look as the other projects in the main entrance area and in the gym lobby.

For the student store project, "The Jungle", the design was to encircle the room with a jungle background of trees and vines, with the Derby Panther looking out from behind large jungle leaves.

Thanks so much to Principal Gretchen Pontious, Angela Swetnam, Jessica Fuller and Jude Schreiner for your support and the opportunity to complete these projects for DHS!

Wineteer Elementary School
Gym and Exterior Projects

As part of the continued updating efforts at Wineteer, we were able to work on more graphics projects this summer. The school gym walls, ceiling structures and ductwork was painted by HTI Painting, Inc. with the opposing color and stripe design on all the walls. For the south gym wall, the outlined Thunderbirds lettering (approx. 5ft tall) was stretched across the width of the court. At midcourt, the Thunderbirds logo was painted, a look consistent with other schools in the district.

For the exterior wall by the main entrance, a design similar to the one painted in the cafeteria last year welcomes students and visitors to the school.

Thanks again to Derby Public Schools for the opportunity to complete this work at Wineteer...to Mr Springer, Principal at Wineteer, and to Keith McEntrire and the staff in Operations for helping facilitate the completion of the project!

USD 385 - Andover Middle School
Cafeteria Wall Project

AMS Principal Amy Champlin envisioned changing a centrally located cafeteria wall into an eye catching accent wall that would be used to showcase pictures and media taken by yearbook staff.

To accomplish this goal, a floating wood frame had to be built that attached to the cinder block wall that would support the weight of the 98" TV and 10ft x 13ft Trojan sign, both backlit with LED lighting. 86 vertical pine boards were cut to size and attached to the frame with equal spacing between each board.

Thanks to Amy Champlin for your vision for this project, and thanks to Doug Jefferson and all of the AMS staff for the support you provided to get this project done. Thanks to Justin Charbonneau for your painting help, and special thanks to Richard Bell and the Operations Department for helping facilitate moving a fire alarm and hanging the 120lb TV.

El Dorado Middle School
Main Gym, Weight Room and Office Projects

For this project, 3 main areas are highly visible from the school entryway. Windows surrounding the gym/weight room offer unique views into the area, and the main office can be seen through large windows, so we wanted big impactful designs for students and visitors as they enter the school.

For the courtside design in the gym, the concrete wall is divided into sections by vertical ridges cut into the surface. Those gaps were filled in to make a smooth face across the 10'H x 86'W design. The wall was painted black, with 8ft tall Wildcat lettering and large Wildcat logo painted on top. Then 24" El Dorado cutout lettering was applied to the wall above.

In the weight room, the area above the windows to the ceiling (10'H x 85'W) was painted black. Then the middle logo (7ft tall by 27ft wide), and 3ft tall lettering on were painted on.

For the office, the wall behind the front desks has a section either side of the middle door. The right side is filled with a shadow Wildcat graphic behind red and white lettering. On the left side, a hand crafted LED backlit Wildcat sign lights up the area.

Thank you to Principal Tom Simmons and staff at EMS...and to Carter Kruger and administration at El Dorado Schools,USD 490 for the opportunity to work on these projects!

Wineteer Elementary School
Cafeteria Wall Graphics
8ft x 38ft Brick Wall

This was a very challenging surface to paint...very porous bricks with deep inset mortar lines. To achieve straight lines, each brick would not only have to have the front painted, but the top and bottom as well. The finished product created a really cool effect when you look at it from different angles!

Thanks to Derby Schools Operations and Wineteer Staff for your support to help facilitate whatever was needed. Thanks also to Shawn Springer, Principal at Wineteer, for the opportunity to complete the work over the Thanksgiving break!

And thanks to Drake Thatcher for your help in getting the work done...it's great to be able to work with your kids!

El Dorado High School
Wrestling Room Project

This project called for covering large wall spaces with school colors, logo and phrases used by the program. The room can be seen from the main gym through large windows, so focused on the use of large graphics for the best visibility inside and outside the room.

EHS Athletics commitment, lettering was painted on the the room entrance wall, above and below the trophy and equipment shelf. Champions lettering surrounds the whiteboard.

The back wall of the room is very long and divided into 3 sections with red backgrounds on the outside, and black for the center. The centerpiece of the project is the 14ft wide Wildcat Logo LED backlit sign. The lights offer many color and effect options, including pulsating to music as shown. Wildcat Wrestling graphics fill the red background areas.

Thanks to Carter Kruger, Asst Superintendent for the opportunity to work on these projects. Special thanks to the guys in the Maintenance/Operations department for their electrical work and help with sign installation!
