Yearbook

Course Overview

Yearbook gives students the opportunity to learn and build upon fundamental aspects of journalistic writing, photography, and graphic design. Students work in a project-based learning environment that uses a combination of direct, small group, and individualized instruction. Students will apply communication skills, both written and visual, and will use advanced technology to create and market a publication with historical value. Being a member of a publication staff is a privilege that requires a great deal of responsibility. Upon successful completion of this course, students will demonstrate knowledge of the basic components of yearbook production, effectively prioritize tasks and schedules in order to meet yearbook deadlines, and work as a productive team member on the yearbook staff.
