The production of a yearbook on the junior high level is a great challenge for any staff. The amount of time, coordination and individual effort is enormous. Is it worth the time and money? At the first of the year, the staff must get together and decide upon a theme and make specific plans for the various pages of the book. 134 Pictured below are Ettora Epps, Carolyn Burrow, Sharon Walker, Brandon Robinson, Debbie Lewis, Lelie McNew and Ray Gryder who ponder these problems. Others work out details of art and design, Warren Hicks, Ettora Epps, Jackie Clanton, Cheryl Spain, Crystal Jefferson, Patricia Scott and Mari- lyn Wade. Edgar Best and Ettora Epps look t hrough the needed materials in the kit provided for compiling a yearbook. Many pages of layouts or rough drafts are made in the search for the perfect style and design. Cheryl Robertson, Kay Abernathy and Cassandra Coates, Tammy Ozmar and Kathy Cum- mings work on these designs. Thomas Mingia and Danny Saul- nier and others sort the 1400 indi- vidual pictures of the students, arranging them in alphabetical order and matching names to faces.

The work just never seems to end. Elizabeth Edwards and Sheila Harvey. Gail McCray, Antonio Kemp and Raymonde Moore hurriedly prepare stories and pictures. Mr. Goodmansen seems to be forever writing hall passes or explaining to teachers why their students missed class. Once in a while, some students take a break. But the deadline pushes closer and Jennifer Sims, Cindy Keller and Sherrie Purdie press on to meet the deadline. Panic strikes and only the most loyal staff members are willing to accept the grueling pressure . Letetia Henderson, Vera Turner, Teddy Yeatts and Charles Spears and several others help in the final moments. Finally the last box is closed and mailed to the publisher. Oh, what a relief it is! As you watch students enjoying the collection of school memories, once again you ask, is it worth the time? Is it worth the money? Was the adventure worthwhile?
