Signage & wayfinding project enters final phase at ETHS District 202
After installing a new system of signs inside of the school this past summer, Evanston Township High School District 202 is approaching the final project milestone of its multi-phase Branding & Signage initiative which focuses on exterior signage and wayfinding. At its February 13, 2017 meeting, D202 Board of Education members approved the request to award the exterior signage project bid to Cardosi Kiper Design Group, the firm that successfully completed the design services for the ETHS interior signage phase.
The goal is to complete the exterior phase during the 2017-18 school year, including the planning, design and implementation of campus and parking lot signage and wayfinding to assist visitors as they approach and navigate around the ETHS campus. A system of signs will be installed to help people find their way around the school’s 62-acre campus by guiding them to outdoor facilities, key destinations such as bike racks, bus stops and parking lots, and school entrances. The exterior sign system will be designed to work cohesively with the interior sign system.
Members of the school community are invited to participate in a brief survey to evaluate their experience with the new interior signage and in navigating around campus:

The survey is open through March 6, 2017 and is completely anonymous.
Funds for all phases of the signage project are issued from the ETHS District 202 Capital Improvements Program, which must be used for improvements to school facilities and infrastructure.
