posted: March 12, 2009

The Friendswood Junior High School Yearbook staff has been recognized by Taylor Publishing with an Award of Excellence honoring its accomplishments in yearbook design and coverage.

The FJH yearbook is featured in the 2009 Yearbook Yearbook. Judges selected the yearbook among the best. The yearbook advisor is Toni McAfoos.

“I’m amazed at what our schools accomplish. By recording the events, memories and history of their schools, each staff preserves moments for years to come. Kudos to every school recognized in Yearbook Yearbook. This 23rd edition marks an 11 percent increase over last year’s school representation,” editor Marilyn Scoggins said. “Taylor staffs get more competitive every year and are doing an outstanding job creating great student-oriented yearbooks. Taylor Publishing proudly honors the best of the best in Yearbook Yearbook and journalists across the nation will use featured ideas to whet their appetites for 2010.”

Yearbooks published by Taylor for the 2008 school year were evaluated in one or more of the following areas: cover design, theme development, layout design, photo content and secondary packages. Taylor Publishing names only the top 10 percent of yearbook staffs for outstanding yearbook achievement.

“Having Friendswood Junior High School featured in Yearbook Yearbook is an award with rewards,” education specialist Judi Coolidge said. “Your outstanding work offers inspiration to thousands of other students who aspire to your level of excellence.”
