10 things to do before you leave for summer break!

THEY'RE HERE! Yaaay!!!

Here are 10 things to remember to do before the end of the year:

1. If you don't use your over runs, let us know. We can take them off your bill and credit you back. Once we pick them up we use them as samples for other schools.
2. Make sure you square away all invoice questions with us if you have any.
3. SIGN UP FOR YEARBOOK CAMP! www.walswortheast.com
4. Pick a theme for next year and get started on designs and colors.
5. Cover the end of the year (prom and graduation) even if you don't plan to put anything in next year's book. It's always good to have just in case you change your mind.
6. Fill out your critiques for CSPA and NSPA and send them in.
7. Purchase things for next year like cameras or waycom boards.
8. Let us know what InDesign you plan to use and if your tech people are going to install a new version over the summer. We need to make sure you have the correct enhancements!
9. Start planning how you're going to market next year's book in the summer. Make flyers and put up posters to buy early. Find out when registration is and BE THERE with a table to sell ybks.
10. Start selling business Ads for next year's book. That way, they can't say they already bought an AD from another school. The sooner you get in there the better. Have sign up's for the summer and who will go to what business.

Until next time!

WOAH! Check this yearbook out!

Go ahead and read the article below. I know many yearbookers want to use new material in their book and this is how one Florida school did it. They show amazing design in their layouts and did extensive research for their articles.

REMEMBER this, they received approval from the adviser and principal. There is also a bit in there that says a school board member stands behind them.
