Teachers, let’s Vandalize your classroom
Every day, Vandal teachers inspire the next generation of thinkers, dreamers and leaders. Vandalize the Classroom is a free program open to elementary through high school teachers to showcase their pride where it counts most: in the heart of their classrooms.
To date, thousands of classrooms, gymnasiums and administrators’ offices across the nation have been “vandalized” in the best way possible with U of I pennants, lanyards, posters, decorations and school supplies. Now’s your chance to celebrate your Vandal roots with your students!
How to “vandalize” your classroom
Complete this form to receive a packet of U of I-branded items to use in your classroom, office or other space and share with your students. Our goal is to recognize Vandal teachers and administrators for their hard work and share the spirit of the University of Idaho with their students.
How to enter to win even more Vandal swag
When you’ve decked out your classroom with items from your packet — and any other Vandal swag you want to add — you can win even more items to take your classroom to the next level. Here’s how:
- Snap some pics of your Vandalized classroom space.
- Post your favorite pics on Facebook and Instagram by Friday, Oct. 30, 2026. Be sure to tag @uidahoalumni.
- From those posts, the Alumni Relations team will select three winning classrooms/spaces: one elementary, one middle/junior high and one high school.
- We’ll contact those teachers to customize an additional prize pack for them, their classroom and their students.
