One of my jobs at school is the yearbook adviser. This is a huge job and takes up a lot of my time during the school year! I am very proud of how the yearbook came out, but unfortunately I can’t show you the inside pages because they are photos of kids (of course.) The yearbook staff is made up of students mostly in grades 7 and 8 and some years we have 6th graders too. There are about 15 kids each year on the staff. We make the pages using Photoshop and InDesign and get it printed at a local printer. It has been cheaper than going through a yearbook company and they can print the yearbook in a little over a week. I used to do the yearbook at another school and we would go through Jostens. Jostens was very helpful and great quality, but we had to have all the pages turned in by March (I think that was our deadline). This way, we can work right up until mid May and still have the yearbook printed.
