Custom after school program t-shirts start at around $20 per shirt with no minimum order at Bear Grips Pro Shops. US-printed, free shipping, delivered in about a week. Here is how to pick the right shirt style for a small after school program of 12 kids or a district-wide program of 200, plus how to design a tee that works for both the daily wear and the field trip visibility.
Why No Minimum Matters for After School Programs
Most after school programs run between 10 and 60 kids. That is below the 24 or 48 unit minimum most custom apparel shops require. A 15-kid afterschool program at a local elementary should not have to order 48 shirts and eat the cost of 33 unworn ones.
Bear Grips Pro Shops removes the minimum entirely. A 12-kid order pays the same per-piece pricing as a 200-kid order. The program orders the exact headcount, and each kid gets their actual size at checkout.
Shirt Styles That Work for After School Programs
Three shirt styles cover almost every after school program.
- Soft cotton youth tee: The daily wear shirt. Comfortable, washes well, runs in youth sizing for the under-12 crowd.
- Performance tee: Moisture-wicking, holds up to outdoor program time and active games. Good for programs that include sports rotation.
- Heavyweight cotton tee: For older after school cohorts (middle school and high school) that want a more substantial fit.

The after school program tee design has two readability goals.
- Program name on the front: Centered chest, large enough to read from 10 feet. The full program name or a shortened wordmark.
- School or organization on the back: Smaller, top-back yoke. Identifies the host school or community center for field trips and pickup time.
Bright safety colors (neon yellow, neon orange, royal blue) double as field trip visibility. A staff member can spot the program shirts in a crowded museum or zoo from across the room.
