Private school bumper stickers

Anonymous
I have a sticker on my car because is required by the school to identify parents and used as a screen by security when we enter campus.

Isn't it more of a parking identification thing for the school?

Yes. The school has been wonderful for our kids. Happy to be supportive.

Yes, my kids asked for it this year. They love their school.

I think it’s tacky to do that, so no.

We do. A big reason we sent our kids to private school was the sense of community and it still makes the kid smile when they see a car driving around with a bumper magnet from their school. I have a magnet from my home state too and my college (which is not elite). I like the community feel. But I wear T shirts/sweatshirts from my college as well from time to time.

Yes, our school isn't very well known, so it helps to let people in our area know it is one of many great options they can get to from where we live.

While not technically a bumper sticker, I have a SMART car fully wrapped with enrollment information, QR codes linking to the interest indicator and the Niche stats for Basis International McLean.

Maybe you've seen my driving back and forth to NASA Goddard.

Yes I have a collections of magnets of all my kids' K-12 schools as well as their colleges.

No. I briefly put them on the car but took it down for privacy and security reasons. I don’t want people seeing the magnet on our car outside our house and targeting us for theft because they assume we are wealthy due to kids in private school. In 2021, we had someone break into our car (with the magnet) in our driveway and I realized it was a risk.

I also don’t want strangers to know where my kids go to school. DH is a CEO who makes a lot of hiring and firing decisions. I don’t need a disgruntled former employee trying to target our family. (The Mansion Murders case in DC still gives me nightmares.)

We don’t have any bumper stickers or yard signs or such like from anywhere about anywhere.
