Now goes into helping our kids put together the yearbook. Yes, you heard right. I'm the yearbook adviser. It's amazing both how many things are similar in running a magazine to running a yearbook staff and how many things are different. It's interesting, though - I don't have the role I'm used to having. At e-Pro Magazine, I was the editor - but we had an editorial director and a publisher/editor-in-chief. For the yearbook staff, I really fulfill those roles and our students fill the roles I'm used to doing and supervising. One thing that hasn't changed? The budget is always the limiting factor. ;-) But, I think we're really doing some impressive things, even with a limited budget and mostly inexperienced freshmen on our staff. This week, while we're in intersession week (a week of tutorials and fun classes between quarters), we have an hour-and-a-half block each day during which to work on the book. So far, we've picked a cover, done some advertising, gotten some training on the software we'll be using, and planned a yearbook signing party for Friday. I hope the signing party goes well - it's an idea that is supposed to get some interest in the yearbook in general, help us sell our 2006-2007 book, and make sure that everyone has picked up their 2005-2006 book. But I think that many people will be there for the pizza.
What do you remember about your high school yearbook? Did you work on it? Do you still have it? Were you in it?
