Building and maintaining the Hawaiʻi State Department of Education’s (HIDOE) identity requires a consistent approach to the use of brand concepts and design across our system. These guidelines are meant to provide guidance and identification of the Department’s brand on all published and online media. It covers appropriate usage of the HIDOE logo and signature to maintain its authenticity and integrity. It does not cover guidelines for Hawaiʻi’s public school logos.
