My Students

Every child has capabilities, talents, and strengths; to become a leader. The students in my yearbook class crave excellence. They all care deeply about one another and the school and want to make an effort to improve in all aspects.

This yearbook course will teach my students to set goals to strive for and the importance of doing their best to meet the goals.

My yearbook staff consists of 25 seventh and eighth grade students that work to capture everyday culture at our school.

My Project

We are currently capturing moments with our cell phones; using cameras will teach our students the basic tools of photography.

The camera and iPads will empower our yearbook students to write articles, conduct interviews with peers, and capture amazing candid shots throughout the school year.

Donations will help to improve our students’ ability to use technology, group skills and meet deadlines. Having a camera and iPads will allow for more student involvement that will impact the entire school.

Having a class camera and iPad will open up many new creative possibilities for the students to take pride in their work. Donations will make a difference by allowing students to use use high tech equipment.
