With the rise of safety concerns on school campuses, the use of student, staff, and teacher ID cards make it easy to identify and authorize anyone on school grounds. These cards can also be used to check materials out from the library, pay for food, and gain access to school events.

Below you will find a range of school ID card design templates which you can download and customize for your school or university. You can easily change, remove, or add text fields and images, and change colors, to fit your school’s needs. All designs shown here are single sided, but can be easily customized for dual-sided printing. See more information on customizing card templates in AlphaCard ID Suite.
