Attention all who will graduate with the Class of 2015:

This information pertains to you. It is your responsibility to see that each of these tasks is completed correctly and on time if you want to be included in the senior section of the yearbook and/or newspaper. The yearbook and the newspaper operate independently of one another, so please read each set of requirements carefully.

Yearbook Senior Section Requirements and Dates

First of all, we want all who will graduate with the Class of 2015 to appear in the yearbook.

Pictures for the senior section of the yearbook must be submitted to Mrs. Medley no later than October 31, 2014. Submit in JPEG format in actual size (NOT COMPRESSED) through email, flash drive, or disk. NO DROP BOXES will be accepted; please tell your photographer this information! Remember anything smaller than actual size or 500 pixels can affect the quality of the image in the yearbook. If you or your photographer chooses to email the picture, please do not reduce the picture to the smallest size. Facebook pictures often do not print well with our current publishing program. The j-peg may be brought in on a disk, flash drive, or e-mailed to

We would prefer to not have an actual picture, but if you do submit a picture, please put it in an envelope. Write your name on the front of the envelope. If you want your senior picture returned to you, please pick it up from Mrs. Medley by May 1, 2015. Retrieving this picture is the responsibility of the senior.

Late pictures will be accepted through November 22, 2014 provided you have discussed the arrangements with Mrs. Medley and pay a $10 late fee.

If you cannot or do not wish to use a hired photographer but want to be included in the senior section, it is your responsibility to make arrangements. You may use the school pictures that will be taken in October as your senior picture, get a friend or family member to take your picture, or see Mrs. Medley if you need help finding another solution. You will need to indicate your choice on your senior sheet. Please be sure that the camera used has a high resolution so that your picture looks great!

If you choose not to be in the senior section, you must sign a refusal form. Staff members will approach you with these forms after October 31, 2014. If you know you don’t want to be recognized in the senior section, please submit the refusal form before October 31, 2014.

School Picture Day

Even if you submit a senior picture, you will need to take one with the school picture day. You are not expected to purchase pictures or to have them included in the yearbook unless you choose to use the school picture as your senior picture. The purpose of taking this school day picture is for identification on Infinite Campus. Seniors are reminded that these school pictures are on every transcript sent out for you.

Newspaper Requirements

Pictures given to the yearbook will be used in the newspaper section. Please remember that The Anderson News uses both the senior picture and the baby picture in the graduation section. We will submit those for you if you have given them to Mrs. Medley by the due date.

Baby pictures should be submitted to Mrs. Medley by October 31, 2014. The preferred method of submission is either electronically OR on a flash drive or disk. Be sure to scan and save your picture. We do not want an actual baby picture because there is a chance that the picture can be lost or damaged. Baby pictures are priceless, and parents do not want to lose these!! They also must be submitted in j-peg format. The j-peg is recommended to be at least 500 pixels; please remember anything smaller can affect the quality of the image in publication. The j-peg may be brought in on a disk, flash drive, or e-mailed to

If you submit a “hard copy” of your picture, please submit the picture in an envelope. Write your name on the front of the envelope. If you want your baby picture returned to you, please pick it up from Mrs. Medley beginning May 1, 2015. Retrieving this picture is the responsibility of the senior.

Senior Activity Sheets

Activity sheets for the senior section of the yearbook must be submitted to Mrs. Medley or Mrs. Craig by October 31, 2014. Please note that if you do not have a picture for the senior section, you will not have your name or activities listed in this section of the yearbook. If your senior activity sheet isn’t turned in by this date, you will not have activities listed with your picture. Unfortunately, there is no late extension on the activity sheets as the yearbook staff begins the typing process on November 1. Instead, we will only list your name the way it appears on school records.

Siblings Sheet

If you and your sibling want to be included in the sibling pages, please complete and submit the Siblings Form. Without the form, you will be recognized on the Seniors and their Siblings pages. We will begin taking those pictures at the start of 2nd trimester.

Senior Superlative Nomination Sheets

Members of the senior class will pick up Senior Superlative nomination sheets from Mrs. Medley in late September or early October. These will be due back within a short time span. Seniors will sign out the nomination form.

Mr. and Miss Anderson

Mr. and Miss Anderson are selected by the Faculty and Staff. If you are nominated, the yearbook staff will notify you and have a group shot taken of you for inclusion in the yearbook.

Questions?

If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Medley or Mrs. Craig. We look forward to including you in the yearbook! You’ve worked hard to reach this spot in your life, and you deserve recognition for accomplishing so much! Have a great senior year!!!!
