iLEAD School Consortium invited learners to research the history and development of mission patches and then design their own to express iLEAD’s participation in SSEP. 483 grades 5-12 students and 221 grades TK-4 students submitted designs. Each site judged and selected their top two designs, submitting them to our panel of judges, headed by a local graphic designer/college professor, which were evaluated on design and spirit.
The design we chose to turn into cloth patches was submitted by a 6th grade girl from iLEAD Lancaster, a whimsical rocket emblazoned with the iLEAD logo, with the ISS on one side and a shooting star on the other…we are taking off! Our second patch, from a Kindergartener, depicts a space explorer dog riding a rocket through the solar system. Artwork receiving honorable mention was submitted by a 9th gradeer, which will be used as background for a poster showcasing our designs.
