Now Accepting Applications for 2019-20 Yearbook Staff!
After twelve award-winning years, there are openings on the MHEA yearbook staff! Join us as we learn desktop publishing and create a memorable book for our homeschool families!
The MHEA yearbook staff has only four openings for new staff members for the 2019-20 school year. This year we will also be assigning photographer opportunities; so if you are a budding photographer, please apply as well.
Students who serve on the yearbook staff will learn basic desktop publishing and will earn a grade and one high school journalism credit. In addition, students will learn leadership skills, practice sales techniques, have opportunities to attend workshops sponsored by Walsworth Publishing Company, and have fun while building new friendships. We expect a fun-filled, productive year. Classes meet weekly with additional required classes for picture days. There is a minimum sponsorship ad sales requirement as well as a photography requirement. We will be meeting Tuesday afternoons from 3:30 - 5:30 pm in Germantown. Students may use their own laptops.
To apply, each high school applicant must submit the proper registration form, a formal essay, and two recommendations. Total cost for the year is $125. The $25 deposit is due upon acceptance to the staff, with the balance of $100 payable by the first class in August. To request an application packet, email the MHEA Yearbook Advisor, Karen Bateman, at Deskmom1@aol.com. DEADLINE for returning applications is Friday, May 31. Applicants might be asked to meet with the advisor for a personal interview and will be notified no later than Thursday, June 6, if they are accepted to the yearbook staff.
