September is the perfect time to decorate your classroom with a back-to-school theme. If you are brainstorming ideas for September bulletin board displays, this post will help. From newsletters to colorful, printable displays, there’s a little of something for everyone. Invite your kids back to the classroom using fun banners, posters, and more. Keep reading to learn about some great ideas, and grab your own resources for fall.

Add Themed Newsletters to Your September Bulletin Board
Some bulletin boards are super colorful and have a fun image with student work on them. Others display important information for the class and parents. If you have an informational bulletin board, use some of the fun September themes to communicate important events, dates, lessons, and more.
The Veterans Day Newsletters are a great way to show students and parents what to expect in the coming weeks. These templates are editable so that you can add dates they need to know, topics students are studying in the classroom, current standards, contact information, and anything else necessary. Three different designs make them perfect for ANY grade level!
The Back to School Newsletters are another great tool to display on your bulletin board this September. Whether you start in August or September, these will get the kids off on the right foot. Just like the Veteran’s Day templates, they are editable and allow you to customize them to your needs.
These Groovy Retro Newsletters are also a fun addition while brainstorming ideas for September bulletin board displays. I personally love the bright colors. They make things fun for teachers and students. Plus, parents can spot them easily in backpacks!
Advocate for Kindness on Your Bulletin Board
Using a phrase that encourages and motivates students is a fantastic way to decorate your bulletin board. These Retro Kindness printables are a fun way to decorate the classroom for Back to School. If you are looking for generic ideas for September bulletin board displays, use this kindness board to put a smile on kids’ faces.
Spread kindness with this fun Back to School Bulletin Board printable as well! The colorful pieces are great for classrooms of all ages. Kids get to add their own smiling faces, making it super fun and collaborative. Anything that boosts the classroom community is a winner in my book!
Decorate Your Bulletin Board with Classroom Jobs
All teachers love using classroom jobs! Display the jobs using these Retro Classroom Job Printables. There are 36 different options to choose from, including a blank card so you can add additional jobs. Adding these printables to your ideas for September bulletin board displays will brighten the room as kids enter the classroom.
Use Banners as Ideas for September Bulletin Board
Banners are an easy way to decorate any area of the classroom. They hang from whiteboards, walls, doorways, and more. Use them to outline your bulletin board or whiteboard. It makes a boring classroom really exciting! If you are allowed, hang them outside your classroom door to welcome kids in each day. The Retro-Themed Banners are fun and colorful displays for any classroom.
