Yearbook provides an opportunity for students
to produce an annual publication while
recording the school’s history in photographs
and writing. Students will experience all
aspects of producing a yearbook with
particular focus on yearbook journalism,
layout and design, and photographic
composition.

During the course of the school year, students
will execute the following: develop a theme,
organize and carry out a business campaign,
shoot pictures, design page layouts, write
copy, captions and headlines, and meet all
deadlines. Yearbook students are required to
sell advertising during the first quarter in order
to stay in the class. Students also cover
extracurricular activities during both
semesters, including photographing
extracurricular activities and sporting events.
In addition, in order to prepare for deadlines,
on occasion it will be necessary for students to
stay after school.
