Quincy High School - Oriole Yearbook (Quincy, MI)

Forword In the absence of the Editor, Janice Wilkinson, at the time when this book was being made up I have the pleasure of writing this introduction to your 19f 8 Oriole- . nnual • This years annual is unique in that it was entirely printed here at Quincy High School. Perhaps it may not reach the standards of many yearbook publishers but the Important thing is that Quincy students published their own book. As you know, for several years the school paper and the school annual have been given to the Journalism Class as class projects. The feeling was that if there was any educational value in publishing the school annual it should be included in the schools curriculum. If there wasn’t any learning value then it should be eliminated from the schools activities. Obviously there are many educational experiences which are valuable to high school students in publishing a year book. Students learn scheduling and planning, lay out, yearbook finance, and this year with our own press and equipment, Quincy students have the opportunity to learn how a book is printed by offset lithography. Unfortunately, few of the members of the Journalism Class have been able to take advantage of this unique opportunity. Katheryn Rzepka has been the only student to help in the production of this book and I wish to give her full credit for her invaluable assistance. Other members of the class were attending summer session at various universities. Unfortunately, due to the recession, the high school press will have to be returned. However, the Journalism Class has had the opportunity, if only for this year, of learning lithographic printing. Please remember when looking through your Annual that this is the product of a class project and is not meant to be competitive with the work of established school annual publishers.
