school flag

Institutional pennant display

A school flag is a flag bearing the colors, emblem, or mascot of an educational institution, displayed at sporting events, graduation ceremonies, or on campus grounds.

Schools use these flags to foster identity and spirit: The school flag flew at half-staff after the principal's death.

Students waved school flags in the bleachers.
