Elementary School

To name just a few, your school can:

• Enjoy the fact that you’ll always have a permanent, cooler, shaded area outside for children and adults to use. On hot and sunny days, the area under a shade structure feels noticeably more comfortable.
• Encourage teachers to explore outside the four walls of a classroom. Children appreciate a change of environment during long days at school. In addition, educators don’t need to worry about computer glare if technology goes outside with the class thanks to the shade.
• Host picnics and other special school-related activities and assemblies under your shade structures, whether or not they’re at your playground area – our shade structures are also great for school courtyards, outdoor dining areas, amphitheaters, and more.
• Leverage your shade structure as a way to entice families to choose your elementary school as their child’s learning environment by showing that you care about outdoor safety and sun protection. The combination of an updated outdoor space, plus the benefit of added comfort and UV protection, can help encourage parents and guardians to feel comfortable entrusting your school with their children.
• Make your shade structures part of your school branding by adding logos, mascots, or school colors. Highlighting the shade structures in brochures and online brings recognition and school pride. At USA SHADE, we have a wide selection of fabric colors to choose from to help you get exactly the look you want for your school.

Most elementary school playgrounds have limited shaded space. While children rarely think about the consequences of UV exposure, parents and educators should always be thinking about how to keep children safe. When they’re exposed to the sun for too long, young children, teachers, and school volunteers all eventually feel the effects of being in the heat for extended periods of time. Providing a safe, shaded area for them to spend time in is essential to their health and wellbeing.

Having shade structures over a playground area will cut down on the worries without interrupting the fun. In fact, USA SHADE offers plenty of customized shade structures in vibrant hues. That way, all students, parents, and guardians will see is a remarkably exciting place to grow and play.
