Yearbook Staff

The yearbook staff produces the annual yearbook and allows students experience in journalism, photography, editing and production. Students will be assigned tasks within their field of interest and asked to complete the tasks by an assigned deadline. This enriches the students by allowing them to work in an area of their own interests, while it teaches them responsibility and experience which will later be necessary in their chosen vocations. Students volunteer for yearbook staff positions and are selected by the sponsor (teacher) in charge of the yearbook staff.

Beta Club

Students in grades 5-9 may be invited to participate in the National Junior Beta Club while students in grades 10-12 may be invited to participate in the National Beta Club. Inductees are selected based partly on academic achievement, but also upon character and leadership qualities.
