Valentine’s Day marks a great opportunity to spread LOVE and TOGETHERNESS across your campus! We’ve heard so many great ideas in past years and wanted to share a few below for inspiration. Start planning now and collaborate with either an established club at your school or assemble a new team to create a memorable Valentine’s Day event!
Just think if EVERYONE at your school received something on Valentine’s Day… it would brighten their day and ensures they receive at least one thing.
Personalized Hearts: cut out hearts for every student and staff member and then write their name and a brief message on the heart. Place hearts around campus the evening before Valentine’s Day. The hallways look great decorated and everyone enjoys finding their heart!
Treat Bags: fill small bags with sweet treats for departments that often get overlooked, such as transportation, cafeteria, or custodial. Ask a club to volunteer or organize a group of students to deliver the bags.
Live Music and Dessert: during lunch time, have select members of your marching band, jazz band, or a DJ play music and have a club volunteer to hand out treats to everyone.
Spirit Beads: give spirit beads to students and staff in the morning to wear all day. The spirit beads could be red/pink or school pride colors.
If your school has not yet planned for a Valentine’s Day activity, we hope these ideas inspire you to use this day as an opportunity to intentionally build culture and relationships among students and staff.
