Welcome!

Welcome to the Warhawk Yearbook Blog.

Yearbook is a Graphic Communications (JOURNALISM) class that combines skills used in Art, Speech, English, Business and Computer Ed classes. Students should be prepared to do the following things in this class....

YOU WILL...
  • Interview students and faculty members (even ones you don't know or may not always get along with)
  • Take photos of major events that happen around the school
  • Write stories, quick reads and articles about the above two activities
  • Create layouts for above content using high tech computer software
  • Cooperate with fellow staff members on projects and fundraisers including selling ads in the community and selling yearbooks


NOTE: Some students have strengths in certain areas. One student with a talent for cartoon drawing may be assigned a large amount of jobs hand drawing illustrations for the book. Another student with an interest in photography may take a high volume of photos, while another with good grammar and writing skills may elect to do more of the writing. But these are shared tasks and everyone will get involved in the work.


Let's all work together to make this addition of the Warhawk the very best ever!

Now we will begin by taking a look at this website. Check here for assignments, helpful hints and updates.
