Yearbook deadline coming to a close

THE MIRROR
The yearbook is a time capsule that holds many of the familiar faces of high school. It’s something everyone looks forward to.
Yearbooks highlight the good in high school with different events and clubs showcased.
Up until a few years ago, the students at Stevens Point Area Senior High (SPASH) didn’t get their yearbooks until the following fall.
Now students receive them that same school year. With this change, there is a more strict deadline with time constraints.
Ning Lee, a student in the yearbook class said, “Editing and getting it approved can result in it not being done when it needs to be.” The earlier deadline makes it harder to make.
The yearbook is full of everything including sports teams, homecoming, clubs, and Red and Black Week. Getting pictures of all of these can be a bit of a struggle.
With time counting down they are working to get the yearbook out to the school.

I think Yearbook is an overlooked class and they have to do a lot and have a lot of pictures and names to get. I think it’s good they switched it to getting the yearbooks earlier.

I like how you talked about how students used to not be able to receive their yearbook until that next fall. I remember when it was like that because my brothers would get theirs during that time, I believe it is better that way because more work can be put in to the yearbooks.

I really enjoy receiving my yearbook every year because it’s great to see what experiences I’ve had throughout the year. I really liked this article, good job Larson.

A lot of work goes into yearbooks and I think this piece did a very good job explaining how yearbooks are important to a lot of people

I never really paid any attention to when we got our yearbooks.. never new they changed it. I feel bad for them. They are under a lot of stress to meet those deadlines.. That must be hard.

I feel bad for the poor yearbook club yes they make the year book and should make it available the same year that its for. However with how many photos that they have to sort though and determine which ones go into the yearbook and which don’t it’s understandable as to why it takes them so long. Picture would be nice for this article maybe the club members or even a year book.

Weird, I just can’t understand why they would change the when the year book came out, but this is the first time I personally heard about the change. This was very well written and informative.
