How To Match Your Sched Event Page to Your School Website
Want your event page to feel like a natural extension of your school site? You don’t need to be a designer or rely on IT to get started. Follow these steps to bring your branding into Sched:
1. Start by Uploading Your School Logo and Colors
Upload your school or district logo and select your brand colors using HEX codes or the built-in color picker. These changes apply across your event site and help visitors feel at home right away.
2. Stick to the Basics (When You’re Short on Time)
Most teams begin by uploading a logo, picking a few colors, and calling it done (and yes, that’s totally fine). Know that even a few simple changes go a long way toward making your event feel more professional and personal.
3. Add Polish With Templates and Optional Design Help
Sched offers branding templates you can customize further. If you work with a designer or have branding guidelines, this is a good time to bring them in.
4. Go Further With Custom CSS (Optional)
Want more control over layout, spacing, or buttons? Use Sched’s built-in CSS editor to fine-tune your event page. A web developer can help, but it’s not required—the default tools still let you build a site that looks great and feels like yours.
Embed Your Event Page on Your School Website
Embedding your Sched event page into your school or district site keeps things consistent. Best of all, your schedule stays up to date automatically. When you make a change in Sched, it syncs instantly on your site.
You can embed:
- Full event schedules
- Specific tracks or views (e.g., per grade or department)
- Mobile-friendly versions
To embed your event page, here’s what to do:
- Go to your Sched dashboard and click Settings → Embed
- Choose your layout and filters (like day, track, or view)
- Copy the embed code
- Paste it into your school website’s HTML, right where you want the schedule to appear

FAQ: Customizing Your Sched Event Page
Can I make my Sched event page look like my school’s website?
Yes. Upload your logo, pick your colors, and even embed your schedule directly into your school site. Want to fine-tune layout and fonts? Use Custom CSS if you have access to help from a web developer or designer.
What if my school doesn’t have a designer or developer?
You don’t need one to get started. Most event teams use Sched’s appearance editor to update logos, colors, and basic layout. It’s built to be easy. You don’t need to have any tech skills to create amazing designs.
Will my Sched event page work on mobile devices?
Absolutely. Sched is mobile-friendly by default. Attendees can view schedules, check in, and get updates from any device. If you customize with CSS, just make sure your edits are mobile-responsive too.
If I’m running multiple events, can each one have its own look?
Yes. Each event in Sched has its own branding settings. You can customize each one independently, which is helpful if you’re running events for different audiences (like a family night and a PD day).
Can I change the branding after my event is live?
Yes. You can update your branding at any time: before, during, or after your event. Changes show up right away.
