Fair Grove High gives their students the opportunity to highlight the year’s achievements and memories by joining the class of yearbook. This yearbook class has students who create and make up the yearbook that students, staff, and parents can buy at the end of each year.
Arizona Carson (12) said that she joined Yearbook for the opportunity to be more involved in her senior year by helping with the yearbook. The role of students in Yearbook is to take pictures of other students and events. They also take their quotes for the yearbook, as well as taking the club photos at the end of the year. The students choose the layout of the yearbook and are responsible for getting any and all information needed for the photos.
Each year the class chooses a theme for the yearbook, this year they have chosen, “A Year in Our Shoes.” Carson said that they all pick the theme together. She also said that while they work together most of the time, they mostly work independently. She commented what her part was, “I work on my pages and take pictures for the extra parts of the yearbook.”
Carson said that they work all year to get their parts done before the finished yearbook has to be turned in. While it is a lot of work, Carson said that the environment is mostly laid back when there is time to spare.
In past years, the yearbook has pages dedicated to all different things. A lot of the pages are dedicated to sports and clubs. These pages showcase a picture of the people in the club and their names. The photos for these are taken by the yearbook class in second semester.
In past copies, the first few pages of the yearbook are pages dedicated to senior pictures. There are also senior ads (photos and words from family members, put in the yearbook for the seniors) in the yearbook.
On top of all that, the yearbook adds quotes from some sports and club seniors.
The yearbook is different each year in its own ways. The yearbook class works each year, taking photos, to make the yearbook as memorable as possible.
