Minds Behind the Movement
No Shenanigans Apparel started in 2017 as an inside joke among teachers who understood the real, unfiltered side of education. What began as laughter in the teachers’ lounge grew into something bigger when sisters in business—Morgan R.S. Johnson, MBA (COO) and Willona E. Johnson, DBA (CEO)—decided to turn that energy into a brand with purpose.
By 2023, the movement expanded into the “New Teacher Boot Camp” podcast, created to help new educators learn from the unpolished truths and mistakes of veteran teachers. The podcast became a space for honesty, growth, and support—laying the foundation for a community that thrives on shared experience and resilience.
In 2025, No Shenanigans Apparel refocused its mission with the launch of the signature line, “Dope Teacher Energy.” Inspired by the post–COVID-19 classroom, this line empowers teachers to reclaim their confidence, express their identities, and remind the world that teaching is not just a profession—it’s a lifestyle, a calling, and a source of unstoppable energy.
Our tagline says it all: “GRIT. GRIND. GROWTH.”
We create apparel that allows educators to show up with pride, authenticity, and a little bit of edge. From bold graphic tees to statement pieces, every design celebrates the resilience and passion of teachers who continue to push boundaries.
At No Shenanigans Apparel, we’re not just another clothing brand. We’re a movement for educators who bring dope energy into their classrooms and communities. No gimmicks. No shortcuts. Just quality gear with a voice as unapologetic as the teachers who wear it.
Join us in repping what teaching is really about—growth, connection, and no shenanigans.
