Custom after school program hoodies cover the fall, winter, and early spring calendar in one apparel piece. Soft fleece, youth and adult sizing, no minimum order. The hoodie that lands in October gets worn through April. Here is how to pick the right hoodie style for your age range and how to size the order for a small program or a district-wide rollout.
Why a Hoodie Is the Right Fall Program Apparel
After school programs run from September through May in most regions. That is six months of cool to cold weather. A t-shirt covers two of those months. A hoodie covers all six.
The hoodie also reads differently than a tee. Kids wear it home, to weekend events, on family outings. The program logo travels further on a hoodie than on a tee that gets put back in the dresser after the program day ends.
Pick the Right Sizing for Your Program Age Range
Two sizing decisions cover almost every after school program.
- Youth-only run: Best for K-5 elementary programs. The youth hoodie sizing covers ages 5 to 12 with the same per-piece cost.
- Unisex adult run: Best for middle school and high school programs (grades 6-12). Adult unisex sizing covers everyone in the older cohort.
Some K-8 programs run both. The shop link supports multiple products, so the youth hoodie and the unisex adult hoodie can both live in the same shop. Browse the hoodie catalog for the styles available in youth sizing.

Two customization options cover after school hoodies.
- Screen print: Lower cost per piece, large logo possible, great for vibrant colors and detailed art.
- Embroidery: Higher per-piece cost, premium feel, lasts longer through wash cycles. Best for staff hoodies or older student cohorts.
Most elementary programs go with screen print on the front chest. Staff and director hoodies get the embroidered chest treatment to read as a tier above the student hoodie.
