The vote on renting computers so that the yearbook staff can finish the yearbook will be held Friday, Feb. 6.
The yearbook has a 48-page final deadline on Feb. 27. The school sponsors a “Yearbook Day” where all the seniors can sign each other’s yearbooks.
“MacWorld in Southside agreed to let us rent four Mactintosh computers with the necessary software for $500 for three weeks,” says yearbook adviser, Rodney Stephens, ” That’s an incredibly discounted price and much cheaper than what our yearbook would charge us for a missed deadline.”
If missing the deadline was going to cost more than renting the computers, they should just get the cheaper solution and move on.
“Our yearbook representative warned us that if we didn’t make the deadline, the chances of the book arriving before summer break were slim,” says junior and editor of the yearbook, Alexis Zavia.
A deadline is a very important thing when working in yearbook.
“We have to get our yearbooks before school is out,” says senior, Reggie White, “Yearbook day is one of the highlights of senior year.”
