OFFICIAL SCHOOL LOGO / ACCEPTABLE USE POLICIES
Logo.jpg

The main image portrays a "dancing child" filled with joy and full of motion.  The images which appear above the child -- a book, which stands for learning and is central to everything done at Mann; a heart, which stands for the "welcoming" community of caring parents, teachers and staff at Mann; and a star, which stands for the hope of a bright future for every student -- are simple, yet powerful, representations of what defines the school and its mission / values.

  • The Horace Mann School Logo should exist in this primary form only. The spacing, positioning, and sizing of individual elements ARE NOT variables that are subject to change. When imported into page layout programs, the height and width MUST remain equal to each other. The preferred use of the logo is in "four-color" form (see approved printing colors).
  • When printed in 4 color format, the School Logo will ALWAYS appear on a "white" background.  If it becomes necessary to use the Horace Mann School Logo using only one color of ink (e.g. copies made on a copy machine, etc.), the spacing, positioning and sizing rules still apply. The only acceptable colors which may be used in this case are purple (Pantone 259) or black.
  • When printed in purple ink the school logo will always appear on a white/cream colored background.
  • When printed in black ink, the school logo may appear on any color background (although white/cream colored background is preferred).

(NOTE:  Earlier versions of logo's are no longer acceptable.)
