New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

Philsmith,
Welcome!
It's so nice to hear about someone not just crocheting for such a long time, but also teaching the art of crochet...great job!
As for your font question, it's a bit difficult, because fonts aren't yet a part of the freePatternWizard (though we've been talking about them, as we've been asked about them a lot).
In the meantime, how about initially experimenting with fonts only? If you can find a font that's solid enough, you should be able to put that together with your graphic of the school's mascot. One thing I can recommend is using a font that's very basic. Serifs probably won't work well, for instance. Solid caps will likely work better than small letters (and from the way you describe it, capital letters sound as if they'll look better, anyway.).
Do you have a graphics program? If not, let me know and I can suggest two very powerful and completely free ones. My suggestion is to find a basic and solid enough looking font and then use the font in a graphics program, save it out as a gif or a png, and definitely not a jpg, if you can help it, as colors of jpgs can get smudgy and terrible looking; it's really not a great format for graphics manipulation.
Hope the above information helps to give you a start on that! Please let me know if
anything is unclear or if my suggestions don't pan out for
you.
How lovely that you're good with crochet cabling, especially enough to teach it to others. That's not a very easy thing
to do, and I know some crocheters who don't understand them at
all. (It took me a while, sweating for months over a
large afghan with multiple crocheted cables! Sure learned
fast after that, though!)
