Michigan International Prep School Bee Mascot Kit

A school’s identity belongs to the people who carry it forward. Michigan International Prep School wanted a gift for every member of staff, with its own identity at the heart of the idea. We turned Bee, the school mascot, into a character each recipient could build and keep, connecting the gift directly to the team it was made for.

The design brings the mascot and school branding together in a 130-piece build. Bee rises above a dark-blue display base, with the school emblem on its chest and the name beneath it. Its wings, antennae, and raised pose give the character personality, while the base gives it a place on a desk or shelf after assembly.

Custom printing, a branded box, and a printed instruction booklet carry the school identity through the whole kit. Produced for hundreds of staff gifts, the project gives a familiar school symbol a new role as a small, hands-on expression of belonging.
