Every school year is filled with fun times, new friendships and opportunities to grow and learn. For the child, the school year and the events that occur hold special meaning. After all, they spend a great deal of time in school, and a lot of what happens there will shape their lives forever.

The yearbook records for a lifetime the events that make the school year special. It also captures the school’s spirit and the important role that each student and staff member play in the school community.

• Memory Book: The photos, headlines and captions in the yearbook preserve school memories for a lifetime. Years from now, students and their families will be able to recall these memories. In many schools, it is traditional for students to sign each other’s yearbooks. These autographs are fun to look back on years later.
• Reference Source: The yearbook should accurately document names, titles, honors and other relevant data. A copy of the yearbook should be archived in both the community and the school library for future reference.
• Community Builder:  The yearbook is a wonderful way to build school spirit and pride. After all, it highlights what makes the school great—the people in it.
• Self-Esteem Booster: When children see themselves in the yearbook, it sends an important message: They are a special and significant part of the school community. This is why it is crucial to feature every child in the yearbook.
• Educational Tool: The yearbook provides a fantastic learning opportunity for students. Students develop skills such as writing, design, photography, selling and more. Most importantly, they learn to work with others to achieve a common goal.
