How We Help

Student Reporter: Samantha Lamers


Every year, the Cedar Grove – Belgium High School publication class creates the yearbook, but not many know how much time, dedication, hard work, and fundraising goes into it. But, not only does the publication class help with the layout design and photographs for the yearbook, but they fundraise outside of school in order to make our yearbook more within your means of price. Through the selling of ads and popcorn, the publication class helps bring the cost down from approximately $80 to $55.


One of our first steps in creating the yearbooks is finalizing the ladder. For those who are not familiar with this term, the ladder is how the year book will be set up. Secondly, as a class we must decide on whether or not we would like to have a theme throughout our yearbook. Next, we have to pick our pages that we would like to design for the yearbook.


While many businesses are aware that their aid helps lower the cost of the yearbook, many are not aware that popcorn sales from home games also help with t he cost of the yearbook.
