Congrats to the Yearbook Staff!

Please congratulate members of the Excalibur Yearbook Staff for being recognized for the second year in a row with inclusion in the publisher’s national “Gallery of Excellence”.

From the citation:

“The Gallery of Excellence is a premier collection of the company’s top yearbooks. Only a small percentage of yearbooks published by Walsworth enter the Gallery each year. The yearbooks in this collection demonstrate thorough knowledge and ability to create all components of a yearbook, including theme, coverage, design and photography.”

It means our book will be shared with schools across the country as samples, and has already been included as exemplary work in next year’s educational resource materials.
