Design notes
This badge shows only the crown of a school entrance: a ring of sand-coloured stones locked by a cardinal red keystone with the class year cut in its panel. High School and Diploma are set in small capitals below it. It is a quick, readable mark for a graduate to share, and it matches the school-gate certificates in the same set.
About
High School Graduation Badge Template, School Gate
A high school diploma closes four years of study, from ninth grade to twelfth. Public and private schools, academies and online high schools award it when a student has met the credit and course requirements, and graduates now keep a digital copy next to the printed one, on a résumé, a college application or a profile.
