Below is a plain NON-CUSTOMIZABLE award template pack that you can grab for free!  This pack includes 4 templates:  2 with flowers, and 2 that do not have the flowers (not sure some of the students would like the fancy flowers).  Use whichever you feel the students would like best.  :)  Just make sure your printer is set to print all the way to the edge of the page - no margins, otherwise it will cut off some of the borders.

How Can You Create Your Own Printable Certificates?

Are you looking for something more unique to your own classroom theme?  I've got you covered and it's way easier than you may think too!

Canva has some amazing free certificate templates that you can customize to make it completely unique to you!  Here's how:

1 - Create a free account at Canva.
2 - Go to "Find Templates" in your left sidebar from your account page.
3 - Click on "Certificates" and choose whichever template you like!

Don't worry too much about the colors - those can easily be changed.  Instead, find the format and design you like and then you can customize the certificate maker to your particular preferences.

Here is one example:

After I edited the text, I also made a few changes to the colors to make them more suitable to my tastes.  Literally all you have to do is point and click to change the colors, font, and text.  Or create a blank template which will be given to all students and add names and the date by hand.

After your design is completed, make sure to save it so you can use it again next year, and download the file as a .pdf to your computer.  Print and done! 

Using this free program for your kids' award certificates, you'll have super professional looking documents in a fraction of the time!

Other Things to Consider for Your End of the Year Student Award Ceremony

A few other ideas for prepping your end of the school year party:
  • Music:  Make sure your list of tunes matches the feeling you wish to convey to your students, their guests, and additional staff members.  Create a fun and upbeat playlist, one that is more formal filled with classical tracks, or choose to play the graduation march on a loop.
  • Slideshow:  Using PowerPoint of Google Slides, put together a slideshow of pictures from the school year.  Play it as parents and guests are waiting for the ceremony to begin.  You can also make a copy of the slideshow and either burn it on a CD (which I did in the old days), upload it to a jump drive for each family, or just add it to a Google Drive folder and email the link to the parents so they can save the file wherever they choose - and it doesn't cost you a penny.
  • Invitations:  While these are completely optional, I think it is a super nice touch to send a formal invite to family members of students in order to really talk up how excited you are to celebrate the learning their child has done this past school year.  Use Canva again to create invitations (using their invitation templates) that match your printable award certificates in a snap.
Have fun creating your own printable templates or download the freebie instead!
