YEARBOOK INFORMATION FOR 2022 GRADS

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY!

The information here is non-negotiable and all deadlines must be met – no exceptions.

Late submissions for anything will not be included.

1) GRAD WRITE-UPS and BABY PICTURES are optional.

2) You only get a GRAD WRITE-UP in the Yearbook if you have had a proper GRAD PHOTO in a gown taken at Artona.

3) If you do not get a proper Grad Photo with a gown, your Go-Card Picture will be used with no Grad Write-Up.

4) GRAD WRITE-UPS and BABY PICTURES for the Yearbook are due Tuesday, February 15th, 2022. No late submissions will be included. To submit your WRITE-UP and BABY PICTURE, use the QR code or link available in the CLC 12 Teams under the “Grad Yearbook 2021-2022” channel. No submissions to teacher email or yearbook staff will be accepted.

5) GRAD WRITE-UPS can be a maximum of 400 characters including spaces, punctuation, letters, and numbers (NOTE – that is 400 characters, NOT 400 words). Your write-up CANNOT have any abbreviations, initials, slang, social media handles/websites, timestamp TV episodes/movies, bullying, innuendos, or anything that is inappropriate for a school publication. If you try to include anything that is not appropriate for a school publication, you do not get to have a GRAD WRITE-UP – it will simply not be included and you will not have a chance to resubmit.

6) You have one submission – you cannot submit a GRAD WRITE-UP and then change or resubmit it – this causes too much chaos and unnecessary work for the Yearbook team.

7) Edit your GRAD WRITE-UP and have several people proof-read it! It will be in print forever!

8) BABY PICTURES must be submitted as a high-resolution jpeg. If you are scanning a picture, make sure that you crop it and submit it in the proper orientation.

9) PLEASE get your GRAD PHOTO taken between December 15th-22nd, 2021 during the times set aside for Handsworth Graduates. These dates are published in the school calendar. If you need retakes, this must be done by February 7th, 2022 and you will pay an additional sitting fee.

10) SHARE THIS INFO WITH ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS!! Too many late submissions did not get included last year.

11) There are 2 sections to the Grad section of the Yearbook – make sure you read this carefully so that you know where you will be placed in the book.

There will be no exceptions made for students in terms of where they are placed in the Yearbook. You will be placed based on what you submit. Please contact Ms. Scott-Desfosses for clarification.

A) If you have had a proper GRAD PHOTO in a gown, you will be included alphabetically like this:

If NO WRITE-UP is received, yearbook staff will provide a message that will appear instead.

B) If you have NOT had a proper GRAD PHOTO in a gown, you will be included alphabetically like this with your Go-Card Picture (after those in the previous section).

Are you ready to submit your Grad Yearbook Write-Up?

Please read “Grad 2022 Handout for Yearbook” carefully before submitting your Grad Write-Up & Baby Picture. Grad Write-Ups and Baby Pictures for the Yearbook are due on Tuesday, February 15th, 2022. Late submissions for anything will not be included. You have one submission – you cannot change or resubmit it. Grad 2022 Handout for Yearbook.pdf
