Learn About Yearbook
The Aerie Yearbook program is an award-winning, student-run publication at Los Altos High School that serves as a cornerstone of the Digital Communications Career Technical Education (CTE) pathway. Students in this program develop advanced skills in photography, writing, and design while collaborating to produce a distinctive yearbook each academic year.
The program has achieved exceptional recognition, earning a first-class rating from the prestigious National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA) for four consecutive years. Beyond yearbook production, Aerie students have garnered numerous individual and team awards in photography, design, social media, podcasting, and leadership from respected organizations including the Journalism Education Association Northern California, Quill & Scroll International Honor Society for Student Journalists, and NSPA. This comprehensive program not only teaches technical skills but also fosters creativity, teamwork, and professional communication abilities essential for success in digital media careers.
