Although times and technology change, NC’s yearbook remains constant. Year after year, the yearbook staff compiles NC’s history into a neatly laid-out book, detailing the people and events that make the school. “I often tell my yearbook staff that they have the pulse of the school. This year, our pulse rate has slowed because there just isn’t as much going on. We knew going into this year that gathering content would be our biggest challenge if we continued to approach the yearbook in the same way that we always had, so we decided to shift our focus away from the school at large and focus more on the individual students who are still thriving in their own ways,” Yearbook Advisor Stacy Baldwin said.

“My favorite things are being able to make new friends with different people because we all get to connect throughout the year and you get really close relationships. Also, when interviewing people I like to learn new things about them and see a different side of people that you don’t usually see,” yearbook staff member Jordan Ross said. In yearbook, students collaborate and form relationships with their fellow staff members and the adviser, Baldwin. Here, a student works with Baldwin to decide a page’s layout.
