Yearbook Introducton

All yearbooks should have:
  1. A catchy title that displays the school's name
  2. An individual section for certain clubs or sports
  3. A theme that is followed throughout the book
  4. Legible fonts for neatness
  5. Well planned color scheme
  6. Captions that provide good information of the photo
  7. Student interactive surveys to add interest
  8. Action shots, especially for sports
  9. Obvious things (words or photos) to give an idea of what the upcoming pages are about
  10. Stuent profiles if they have accomplished something outstanding 
  11. Q&A's to engage readers
  12. Pages dedicated to the school's outside programs
  13. Student and teacher quotes
  14. Always labeling who said what/took what photo
  15. Covers special and major events
  16. Making sure every student is in it at least once
  17. Highlighting the students who volunteer

  20. A hard back, appealing cover
  21. An awards page (ex: best dressed) 
  22. Pages dedicated to the importance of the stuent council

  1.  My assigned yearbook is titled "Echo5 Orenda"
  2. The school is M.B. Lamar High School.
  3.  The thematic element of this yearbook is color. Each page, before the students, is themed with a color of the rainbow for that whole page, but it isn't overpowering.
  4. This year book has 9 sections
  5. My favorite spread of the book is the flashback senior photos. They're really cute an their parents write them messages.
  6. Yes, there is an index in this yearbook.
  7. There are photos of people in groups and organizations.
  8. There is no table of contents, just titles on each occurring page.
  9. There are 3,525 students enrolled at Lamar in 2005. 
  10. This yearbook is from Houston, Texas.
