Yearbook

This course develops and enhances the skills necessary for the production of a quality high school yearbook. These skills include interviewing, journalistic writing, photography, computer layout (including topics related to graphic design, desktop publishing, typographical terminology, etc.), the setting and meeting of short and long-term goals, photography, the selling of advertising and the promotion of the yearbook. This is a year-long course. Participation for only one semester is discouraged and requires instructor permission. Students are encouraged to take this course multiple years as leadership positions generally go to those with experience.
