Ideas for coverage seem to sag this time of year. Here are a few suggestions to inspire your staff on these chilly winter days:
Each yearbook company has samples of spreads posted on their websites. If your staff is lacking the creativity they had in September, but still need fresh ideas for coverage...log on to one of the company sites to generate new life in your staff.
Companies also have a "best of the best" book available to all advisers. Ask your rep for your company's book. Taylor/Balfour's book is called "Yearbook Yearbook". I think Herff's is "Ideas that Fly". Nevertheless, all the companies have one and you can request it. If you're up for bid this year, do a little sweet talking and see if the local rep will drop off one for free.
Also, your yearbook rep will have sample books from other high schools. Ask he/she to bring the best book in the pile for your staff to view. Maybe, they can find innovative ideas and spin them to use in the book.
