Yearbook, Is It The Class For You?

Springville Junior High’s yearbook class is a full-year class with Ms. Rachel Neeley.  In yearbook, students  design pages on a online program, take fun pictures and learn how to deal with deadlines.  It is only a single period class, and it gives you a chance to be creative as well as some freedom to go along with that. 

“I love yearbook because its fun seeing how people's personalites come out and express themselves,”  Halle Acor, an eighth-grade yearbook student at SJHS, said. In yearbook you get quotes design pages, and work around deadlines, which means the staff has to complete a certain  amount of pages finished by the deadline. Ms. Neeley  said, “I want my students to learn how to take a good picture, how to layout and design a page, and how to be responsible and keep up with deadlines.” 

In the yearbook class, students take all different kinds of pictures such as movement, sports, classes, groups and action shots along with just plain out fun, interesting pictures. Meg Longhurst, a yearbook student at SJHS, said, “We design pages, interview people, and get pictures of things like assemblies and things like that.”

Morgan Martin, another yearbook staff member, said, “I love yearbook mainly because when it’s all finished, people look at themselves and say ‘that’s me!’”  So, if you are interested in designing pages, socializing with all kinds of people, interviews and taking pictures, yearbook is the class for you!
