It’s a joy when the yearbook comes out. And then you begin working on the next one. Before you move on, capture the magic with a permanent display in your room.

Yearbook staffs come and go. Capture the memory of the year by showcasing the book, theme and students. Here’s how five schools have done it:

Classroom_YBs_Woodlands860
The Woodlands High School
Every cover is framed and hung on the wall in order (see top photo as well).


Classroom_YBs_Shawnee Mission South860
Shawnee Mission South High School Also framing the sample covers, the Heritage staff add a background staffers sign.


21_Holy Trinity_staff cover ceiling tiles1000
Holy Trinity Episcopal School The Tigrium staff paints a ceiling tile for each yearbook, connecting to that year’s theme. The editors add their names.


22 Marian_YB covers canvas1000
Marian High School
A tradition for more than a decade, Marian paints the theme for the yearbook and newspaper each year. Originally drawn on the classroom walls, they’ve now moved to canvases. Each yearbook canvas illustrates the look of that year’s book, and all staffers sign the canvas.


22 Prescott_YB cover staff signs 860
Prescott High School
Originally painted on canvas, the Hassayamper staff now prints an enlarged color rendition of the cover. All staffers sign the wall art.
