On August 7, when the PAWESEHI Yearbook arrived, students search the index to see how many pages they were featured on, while lining the sophomore hallway. With 66 publications students covering 1237 students the Publications courses are trying a new route to encourage picture submissions.
Jostens’s ReplayIt app is the solution. This free app allows students, faculty and parents to upload pictures from their phone and tag pictures with names and events. Once images are submitted photos go through an approval process.
“This will help the Newspaper and Yearbook staff have more diverse coverage and gives everyone an opportunity to participate,” senior Annie Spewak, features editor said. “It’s like a school-wide Instagram.”
