Northview High Earns National Yearbook Design Recognition

April 4, 2016

Northview High School’s yearbook, Tribal Spirit, has been recognized for excellence and featured in the 2016 Jostens Look Book, celebrating the best-of-the-best in yearbook design and coverage. The Jostens Look Book is a collection of spreads and photos from outstanding yearbooks and their creative themes, cool covers, dazzling designs, relevant coverage, storytelling copy and action-packed photography.
Along with design excellence, the annually published Look Book honors the important role well-crafted yearbooks play in helping schools chronicle the experiences, stories and achievements most relevant to students and that academic year.

The Tribal Spirit was created by Co-Editors Jessica McCullough and Kamryn Brock along with staff members Bethany Reynolds, Jessica Amerson, Jordan Taylor, Bradley Van Pelt, David Weber, Destiny Watson, Elisabeth Amerson, Celeste North, and Haylee Weaver under the direction of Alison Robinson, Northview High School yearbook

The NHS Tribal Spirit yearbook was one of only 494 yearbooks selected from approximately 3,000. The 2016 panel of judges, comprised of nationally recognized scholastic journalism professionals and award-winning yearbook advisers, selected the best examples of yearbook spreads and covers to make up the 320-page 2016 Look Book.

“Yearbooks are unique, limited edition books created by students to capture the stories and events for all of the school’s students and Jostens is proud to celebrate the yearbook tradition and the 494 yearbooks selected for the 2016 Jostens Look Book, said Gary Lundgren, editor. “Today’s yearbooks are very sophisticated in terms of visual presentation and the relevant and inclusive content that is featured.”

Robinson and her yearbook staff received a copy of the 2016 Jostens Look Book and certificate from Jostens to recognize their outstanding achievement.

    This is such a happy story! Congratulations to these students who worked so hard to preserve the memories for their fellow students. While I never worked on a yearbook, I was neighbors with our class historian who was up very late at night keeping records of our class and sharing her photos with our yearbook staff. What a job! I recently thumbed through yearbooks of a friend from Mobile, AL. from 1959 and another from 1963 so yes, people hold on to their yearbooks. I still have a few of mine which cost $4.00 and $6.00, plus $2.00 for the summer supplement (which covered everything that happened after the yearbook went to the printer, such as the prom.) I can only imagine what they cost today, lol!
