Personalized First & Last Day of School Sign with Sliding Grade Ruler — Letter Name Board | Reusable Pre-K to 12th Keepsake
One board. Every grade. Pre-K all the way to 12th.
This handcrafted wooden keepsake is cut in the shape of your child's very own initial — their name raised in 3D script across a classic lined-notebook design. But here's what makes it unforgettable: a sliding wooden ruler runs across the board. Each new school year, just slide the little arrow to your child's current grade. The same board grows with them, first day of Pre-K to senior year.
Why families love it
- 🔠 Cut as their letter — the whole board is your child's initial. A for Ava, S for Sophia. The only letter-shaped grade tracker you'll find.
- 📏 Sliding grade ruler — move the arrow from Pre-K → K → 1st → all the way to 12th. One board, thirteen first-day photos.
- 🔁 Magnetic "1st" & "Last" tags — swap between First Day and Last Day of school in a second. Reusable every single year.
- 🎨 Designed around them — their name, your choice of font & color, plus up to 3 icons they love (rocket, dinosaur, flower, soccer ball & more).
- 🌳 Built like a keepsake — 5mm plywood base, 3mm layered name, icons & ruler, laser-cut and hand-finished with child-friendly paint.
