Elementary student council shirts need youth sizing, simple designs, and a price point that works for a school with a smaller council budget. The Youth Airlume Cotton Athletic Tee from Bear Grips (Free $23.93, VIP $19.88) is the right blank, and the design approach is "big role on the back, school name on the front." Here is exactly how to do it.
Youth Tee Blanks for Elementary Councils
The Youth Airlume Cotton Athletic Tee is the elementary council standard. Sizes run XS through XL in youth sizing. Soft 100% cotton, durable through repeated washes, prints crisply with simple designs. For elementary councils that want a heavier feel, the Youth Moisture-Wicking Performance Tee from Sport-Tek (Free $28.95, VIP $23.88) is the alternative.
Avoid adult sizing on elementary councils. The cut is too long and the necklines are wrong for kids in fourth and fifth grade. Stick with youth blanks.
Simple Officer-Role Designs for Younger Kids
Younger kids respond to clear, large designs. The proven elementary council layout:
- Front: School name in large letters, with a small mascot underneath.
- Back: The role in bold (PRESIDENT, VICE PRESIDENT, SECRETARY, TREASURER) above the student's name and grade.
Skip clever slogans. The role and the name are the point. Kids in elementary council are proud of the title and want it visible.

For schools where every council member (officers, class representatives, and student liaisons) wears a single matching shirt, the design is:
- Front: "[School Name] Student Council" with the year.
- Back: Council motto or list of member names in small text.
Order between 15 and 40 youth tees for a typical elementary council. Each family orders their child's size at checkout. The advisor never collects a single size form.
Pricing the Elementary Council Shirt
Youth Airlume VIP base is $19.88. Set retail at $25 to $28 for a margin of $5 to $8 per shirt. For a 25-member elementary council, a single shirt drop nets the council $125 to $200 in pure margin. Use the funds for end-of-year council awards, leadership retreat snacks, or a thank-you gift for the advisor. See council fundraiser revenue math for full numbers.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
What sizes do youth tees come in?
Youth XS, S, M, L, and XL. Most elementary school students fit between youth S and youth L.
Can we put the student's name on the back?
Yes. Each council member orders their own shirt with their name and role printed on the back. Pricing per shirt is the same with or without the name customization.
Does the advisor have to handle every order?
No. Each family orders directly through the council store, pays at checkout, and the shirt ships to the family's home. The advisor never touches the order.
What if a council member needs adult sizing?
Larger fourth and fifth graders sometimes fit better in an adult small. The same store carries both adult and youth sizes on most cotton tees. The order screen shows both side by side.
