DUE TO MS. PHELPS IN C-238 BY FEBRUARY 2nd! Students will create and design the Lightyear; EVHS’s yearbook! Students who are interested in taking pictures, interviewing students and staff, designing pages, advertising and marketing, should apply for Yearbook. Current 10th – 11th graders may apply. Yearbook class requires students to be self-directed and responsible for creating specific portions of the yearbook using multimedia and web-based graphic design software. Students considering this class should be selfmotivated, self-directed, task oriented, and be able to complete tasks in a timely fashion. These characteristics are critical to the development of our school's yearbook. Students will engage in midterm evaluations each quarter to determine if they are satisfying the expectations of the class. Based on the midterm review; the teacher will make recommendations to determine if the yearbook class is an appropriate placement for them.
