HOW TO YBK
Conquer ‘spring fever’
 
It’s April, and you’re in the home stretch. There’s so much to do in the world of yearbook, and your students are getting spring fever to be sure. Here are some ideas for keeping them busy in the weeks to come (well, after your book is complete).
 
HOW TO KEEP STAFFERS FOCUSED
 
1. Mind your business: Make sure your eBusiness entries are up-to-date (if you sold books at school). Do your best to sell all of the books you’ve ordered, and don't forget overruns.
 
2. Plan for next year: It’s time to assign staffer roles for next year, conduct year-end interviews and recruit new staffers. Check out the Welcome Section of the Curriculum and The Recruiting Center on Yearbook Discoveries.
 
3. Herd the cats: We all have a tendency to let organization go when we’re hustling to meet a deadline. This is a great time to gather up all of your PDFs and clean out folders and files. It’s also a great time for your staffers to collect samples of their best work for their portfolios. Sounds like an assignment!
 
4. Teach one thing: Choose an area (or areas) where your staff could stand some additional training — or focus on the new features of eDesign. Assign each student or small team a lesson to teach, and ask them to provide a quick quiz. The quiz helps you evaluate the trainers and the trainees.
