School spirit or varsity pins are small, decorative badges that are given to students who have earned a varsity letter in a sport or activity at their school. Varsity letters are typically awarded to students who have demonstrated exceptional skill or dedication to a particular sport or activity, such as football, basketball, cheerleading, or debate.

Varsity pins are often designed to represent the school’s team colors or mascot and may feature the initials of the school or team. They are usually made of metal or enamel and may be adorned with additional details, such as ribbons or stars.

Wearing a school varsity pin is a way for students to show pride in their accomplishments and to represent their school and team. They may be worn on a letterman jacket or displayed on a backpack or bulletin board.
In addition to varsity pins, schools may also award pins for other achievements, such as academic honors, leadership roles, or community service. These pins serve as a tangible reminder of the student’s accomplishments and can be a source of motivation for future success.
