This Month's Feature: Distribution Day Ideas

Check out these great ideas that Lifetouch Yearbooks Think Tank members shared for distribution. View all Distribution Day Ideas

1. Have a Yearbook Signing Party

Barbara Wilkins - Tar Heel Middle School
We have a Yearbook signing "Party.” I purchase ball point pens and Blowpops--each grade level comes at a time. I start with the grade level that has purchased the most yearbooks and go to the least. We have all the purchasers in the Media Center at one time--busy, but fun!!!

2. Advertise Distribution Date in School Newsletter

Veronica Gatling - Desert Christian Elementary School
We put the distribution date in our school newsletter and almost immediately parents begin to call and come in to pick up their books. After the students receive their books we allow a special time for students to go to various classrooms to get signatures from former teachers, administration and friends.

3. Create Posters

Kimberly Goodner - Garfield Elementary School
This year, I have created several different posters that showcase pictures from the yearbook. I posted signs with the posters that stated if you are on this poster, you could be in the yearbook. The students and staff have enjoyed seeing all of the pictures and it has created a lot more interest in the yearbook. I think that this will make the students a lot more excited to see the yearbooks when they arrive.
