PTO Today

We're doing a yearbook this year, for the first time, and after researching cost, ease, etc., we came up with the following company:

Seems pretty easy. Today I uploaded dozens of photos and am meeting with a rep tonight who is going to guide our committee in creating the pages.

Hope this helps.

In regards to Yearbooks, has anyone heard of or tried Interstate Studio located in Missouri. It's noted they have been in business for over 75 years? I need some feedback, first time our school has had a yearbook in ten years.

Our school used Interstate Studio a couple of years ago and were very pleased with them. We chose to use LifeTouch this year because we thought it would be easier since they do our pictures. I have not been disappointed yet, but the year is still early. Interstate Studio seemed to be a really good company from what I remember

We have used Lifetouch for the last several years. Our committee has used the cut & paste method of putting the book together.....mega hours and huge cost!! Haven't had any huge issues with Lifetouch but I know that the kickback from using them for pictures is a plus. Would love to go to digital/online preparation of the book. Does anyone have experience with Herff Jones?? Our Middle school uses them and have really liked the product. They apparently have an online method of compiling the book that looks pretty user friendly. We don't have many volunteers who want to jump in to this!! Trying to find a way that is easy to learn.
Any suggestions....I've rambled a bit!!
Thanks,
Beth

many high schools in my area are using Herff Jones.

just as I was tooting Taylor Publishing's horn....we've had problems with their website going offline, not so great when you're trying to meet deadlines!

We did our first digital yearbook. The company we used was Walsworth Yearbooks. We have a great rep who is easy to reach and was very helpful.

Our school is using a new program from Herff Jones. All color, super easy software-my kids LOVE it! I never thought I was going to be able to use the computer to figure it all out but it is so easy. I really like that my rep is local. We used another company last year who we had to call an 800 number for help. We only order 100 book with 60 pages all color for about $18.00. That's not bad for our small school!
