I am one of 12 people who work over 1000 hours on this book, a book that helps us relive memories of high school. But your book is in danger. The district wants to cut the yearbook class, reducing the time to make the book to 200 hours. If you want a quality yearbook instead of a weak brochure to document your years at Lincoln-Way, please sign!

I spent all night looking at old layouts and honestly just feeling angry because a brochure is not a yearbook. People keep messaging me with their favorite memories and it just proves that we are right to fight for this thing.

Basically, the district isn't completely getting rid of the book itself, only 800 of the 1000 hours we spend on it. we would be unable to create sports page, or student life pages, since it would be after school and we cannot interview others. This decision however provides the district no monetary gain.
I was in this class for 3 years and was editor my senior year. I learned truly valuable skills from this class related to teamwork, time management, pagemaking, writing, leadership, deadline compliance, hard work, and dedication. I could continue if necessary. Turning this truly educational class into a club would be a disservice to the students in terms of educational opportunities and memories documented for a lifetime.
Although I am a freshman I would still love senior year book when I graduate as it is a tradition in my family to go over the year books on holidays
Don’t let the Yearbook crumble in the hands of a club, let the people who know what to do (I.e. Mrs. Dunn) handle the class just as it has been for the past 15+ years! If a class can run with under 10 students, then this yearbook can too!
Every year i look forward to recieving my yearbook more than anything. It holds so many precious memories from the past year. I dont know what i would do with out it.
The yearbook is such a good thing!
Save it!

Seriously??!!!! They get that together all freaking year. The book is amazing and you expect the same quality in 200 hours??!!!!! That's insane!!!!!!!! The book is amazing and the kids who want to put in the time will take the class and its obviously well worth it. The school profits off it , it won't as much if it's absolute piece of crap of only pictures and name titles
