Can you believe that you are going to be a senior this year? If you are already planning your wardrobe, you have probably planned to buy a senior class shirt. After all, that shows school spirit and it lets everybody know which school you attend, so why wouldn't you guy a senior class shirt? In fact, you might want to buy more than one so that you'll have an extra while the other one is in the laundry. Here are some ideas for how to use your senior class shirt in a variety of ways.

Buy More Than One

Senior class shirts are usually very affordable, so buying more than one is probably not too hard on the wallet. Of course, you'll be wearing your senior class shirt to school on special pep rally days, and you'll probably wear the shirt to games, too. However, there are other ways that you can put your senior class shirt to use.

Think of getting an oversized one and use it as a nightshirt. Think of how much fun it would be to host a slumber party and to ask all your friends to wear their senior class shirts, too.

You can also enhance your shirt. One consideration is to buy a scarf in your school colors. Wear it around your neck or in your hair when you wear your shirt to create an outfit.

Use Senior Class Shirts As Money Makers

Has your club or organization decided to sell senior class shirts to raise money for things like a choir trip or a competition held in a different city? If that's the case, you'll want to be creative in the way you promote them.

You still have time before the big homecoming game to sell the shirts to people like parents, neighbors and even teachers at your school.

You can also buy large teddy bears and dressing them in the senior class shirts.  Find out if you can show them at PTA meetings at the middle schools and elementary schools in your area where parents might buy them for their children. After all, someday those kids might be at your high school, too.

Lastly, does your area host arts and crafts fairs during the autumn months? If so, see if the managers of those events will allow you to set up a table where you can sell the shirts and other items like pompoms and key chains that have your school logo on them.

​When you wash your senior class shirts, consider hanging them up to dry rather than putting them in the clothes dryer so they'll last longer. If you have more questions, contact companies like Gariel Screen Printing that print senior class shirts.
