Eligible High Schools can display a U.S. News-trademarked Best High School’s award "badge" (logo). There are also specialized badges for magnet, charter schools and stem schools. These badges are offered so that eligible schools can celebrate and promote their high rankings.

Eligible High Schools can purchase customized plaques and banners featuring the badge. You can also buy licenses that provide permission to display each badge on a school’s website, social media, signage, apparel and a variety of other locations. Purchase of a badge license or promotional materials will not affect current or future rankings. We are the official licensing agent of U.S. News & World Report.
