Dear Mrs. Burke,

It has come to my attention that the Legend yearbook is accepting applications and in need of a section editor that is able to design layouts, assist other staffers, create a section and make the book an overall successful publication. Please find enclosed my resume for review as I feel I am able to demonstrate these qualities, making me the right person for the job.

Previously being a section editor on the 2013 Legend yearbook staff has taught me many skills: how to design layouts, work with the staffers in my section, write stories and use InDesign and Photoshop, all while successfully managing and meeting deadlines of my own. I was able to use these skills throughout the year and incorporate them into all of my work. This experience has proven to be useful on staff, and would be an essential asset for an editing position.

As a previous staffer and editor, I am fully aware of the dedication involved in making the book and understand the work an editor must dedicate. I strongly feel that with my past experience, I am able to contribute that amount of effort. I enjoyed helping others as well as creating new designs and ideas that can be used in the book. Being a section editor would allow me to use these skills to improve the cohesiveness of the section and help make next year’s Legend successful.

After reviewing my background and the skills I have to offer, I would love the opportunity to meet with you in person. I feel you would be able to get a better idea of how I can be a good addition to next year’s editing staff. I would appreciate meeting with you at your convenience. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear from you soon.

Respectfully yours,

Olivia Rees

ESSAYS

Freshman year and journalism was just another elective to fill my schedule. I never once thought that I would become so involved in an activity that is such a big part of my life today. Being on yearbook has allowed me to learn something new everyday; whether it was a new skill on In design or lesson about life in general, I can’t help but owe it to the class for catching my attention two years ago. Regardless of the fact that this was my second year on staff, there is so much I have learned over the past year. As an editor, I was able to experience and be a part of the behind the scenes production of the book, and learned that there is actually so much more to perfecting a page and section than one would think. As far as deadlines, I quickly learned how

to manage my time in class so that I could help people in my section in addition to finishing my own spread. It was important for me to remind myself that teamwork is key, and when you’re sharing a page with someone else it is essential to communicate with your partner. Overall, I think that journalism was a valuable course to take because of everything I have taken from it. Without a doubt I can apply these skills not only in school, but also outside of the classroom and in my everyday life. (Knowing all the different grammar rules was definitely useful for the countless AP Language essays I had to write this year). Even if I don’t chose to pursue journalism in college, all of the knowledge I’ve learned will help me no matter where I go in life.

self-analytical

I consider my most significant piece this year the deadline seven tennis spread. Overall, I was really pleased with the outcome of this page. For this deadline, I worked with Courtney. I like to think that we made a pretty good team; we were always on the same page, went to interview and take pictures together, and stayed after school to make sure everything was turned in on time. You can see from the first draft that our story was not bad, but needed some work. One of the problems we ran into was difficulty getting the coach’s interview back; however, once we did, the story went fairly smoothly. I think that one of the main reasons this page turned out so well was because Courtney and I took the time to understand the sport

and talk to the players. We went to multiple tennis matches to get the pictures we needed and to interview people when they were off. Throughout the whole deadline we stayed on task and successfully turned in everything on time. We didn’t necessarily split the page up, but instead worked on the pictures, captions and body copy together. Unlike previous deadlines I’ve shared, I found that this eliminated any confusion that can sometimes occur when partners do not communicate. What I liked best about the finished product is I feel that Courtney and I captured the success of both the boy’s and girl’s team this season. I am proud of the story, pictures and the fact that we were the first ones to make deadline.

reflection 2

The piece that I feel still could use work is my deadline three DHH/ELL/TMH spread. Not because I hate the page, but I think that I could have done better on the design and coverage. I wish I had made the design more interesting to hilight the students and draw the reader into such an interesting topic. This deadline was very hard to cover because of the communication barrier the students experienced. I think that I could have gotten better quotes to capture how the students actually felt about all the activities they did in class. Students in these programs participate in so many off campus activities, and I wish they were pictured on the page to give more variety. In all, I was happy with the story, but still would make some minor changes if I had the opportunity.

One of the main reasons I am proud of this picture is because it was published in the yearbook on the student life divider. I feel that from the whole year, this was my best picture taken. It shows emotion, has good depth of field and fills the frame. I think that it really captures the excitement of the Powder Puff game. It also won a FSPA All-Florida Feature Photo. powder puff 10-15_rees159.jpg

I picked this picture because it was published on the homecoming nights page. I think that it has a good center of visual interest, it fills the frame and displays depth of field; the girl is clear and in focus while her background is blurred out. powder puff 10-15_rees142.jpg

I picked this picture because it was published as the dominant on the technology page. This was the only dominant I have in the book. It shows the element of rule of thirds and his arm creates a leading line. Personally, I like the shadow that is created on the Smart Board. 061-001_smartboard.jpg

reflection 4

This year I feel like I was an asset to the staff by always helping when it was needed. As an editor and second year staffer, I already knew how the staff was run and what to expect from each deadline. Although I took on new responsibilities, I was still able to manage my time and stay on task. I always offered to help the new staffers when they needed it, and tried to check in with those in my section. If someone in my section needed something done, I would find the time to help them do it. I think that because of this, I led by example, and hope that others

were able to see my dedication to the book and the staff. I stayed after school before pages needed to be shipped and when they came back in proofs. While every other editor had two class periods to do their work I had one; however, I still made sure to get everything turned in on time. In the big picture this may not seem very significant, but little things like consistently meeting deadline and making myself available to others really did help the publication run smoothly and eliminated any unnecessary stress.

One problem I faced this year was when my partner for deadline 4 was sick the whole week of majors. As a result, the page fell on me, on top of the four other spreads that were in my section and needed to be fixed and shipped. This is always an awkward situation when you are friends with your partner, yet they leave something unfinished for you to complete. I was so preoccupied with the pages in my section that I had to take the zero for majors and let Kayla and Burke take over the page. I can’t lie and say that I wasn’t annoyed at this situation, because to me that’s not something you should leave for someone else to finish by themselves. Even though I was upset at the time, I learned that things don’t always turn

out the way you expect them to. No matter what, problems come up and you just have to deal with them in an appropriate way. I was a little disappointed that I had to take the zero, but it taught me that sometimes you just have to suck it up and move on. If something like this were to happen again, I would probably deal with it the same way. I don’t feel like I had a lot of options in this situation, and had to just like things play out. One thing I would do though is not be afraid to tell my friend that I don’t think it was nice of them to leave the work to me. Overall, I feel like I handled this the best I could. It was probably better for Burke and Kayla to finish then have me rush to get things done, because it leaves more chances for mistakes.

In my midterm, I wrote that my three goals for the rest of the year were to meet all deadlines, check in with staffers and have more creative designs. I can actually say that I feel like I have accomplished all of these goals. Even though I only had one deadline after the midterm, it was met on time. Deadline seven I worked hard to get everything turned in on time, and as a result Courtney and I were the first to meet deadline. My second goal was to check in more with staffers. My section ended deadline 5, however; I do think I made an effort to ask how people in my section were

doing. It was also helpful that I didn’t have any deadlines of my own, because I was available to help with interviews or body copy whenever someone needed it. I was more focused on the pages that deadline because I didn’t have another spread I had to complete on my own. My last goal was to have more creative designs. Out of the few designs I did after the midterm, I think they were more creative because I had experience designing the first half of the year. For these reasons, I feel that I was able to address the problems I struggled with early on in the year and work to meet the goals I set for myself.

047every chair046academics design by OLIVIA REES“I make the most of my moments by enjoying them and surrounding myself with positive [people],” junior AJAH DELOACH said.

ONE , SIX STORIES

With a bounce in her step and a smile on her face, she glanced around, ready and willing to help anyone in need.

“I think it’s the right thing to do. It brightens [someone’s] day, and you never know if someone is having a bad day,” freshman Rebecca Nance said.

To accommodate Nance’s brother’s Asperger’s Syndrome, their mother taught her to always lend a helping hand.

“I’m helpful because my mom raised me to be that way, and my brother has a condition where he needs people to be nice to him or he will get angry,” Nance said.

Asperger’s Syndrome was a form of autism that decreased a person’s ability to interact properly in social situations, to communicate and to use his imagination.

“I started being nice to him, and it carried over to other people,” Nance said.

Following in her mom’s footsteps, Nance also performed community service through being a member of Key Club. Additionally, Nance was a member of Baking Braves, Serendipity Club and color guard.

“[My mom] taught me to live by [the adage] ‘Live big, laugh often and love much.’ I apply [this motto] to my life,” Nance said. “Helping others makes me feel good, like [I’m] helping the world be a better place. I think there is a ripple effect when people help others.”

As she walked to her next class, her breathing increased and her body began to shake. She became increasingly more nervous about her upcoming test.

“People always see me as funny and cheery, and that’s true. I feel like that’s who I am, but sometimes it’s not. You can be a really happy person and still have problems,” sophomore Amanda Hughes said.

Hughes often struggled with constant anxiety and panic attacks.

“[When you’re having a panic attack,] you basically feel like you cannot breathe. The worst part is you don’t know why, and you have to wait it out,” Hughes said.

Through experience and counseling, Hughes found a unique way to keep her anxiety and panic attacks under control.

“The biggest solution is just really not to think about it. A lot of people don’t believe that,” Hughes said.

Joining the drama program also helped Hughes handle her anxiety.

“In drama, it’s not possible to not put yourself out there. Being in drama has conditioned me to stay out of my head,” Hughes said.

Despite the daily difficulties of living with anxiety, Hughes knew overcoming her issues ultimately benefited her.

“I think [my anxiety has] definitely made me a stronger person. It’s the biggest challenge I’ve faced so far. I [now] know that I’m strong enough to deal with things myself,” Hughes said.

mind

Arriving at the Anime Club meeting after school, he instantly felt at home. The extracurricular created a judgement-free environment in which sophomore Kristopher Roosa felt safe among his fellow like-minded club members.

“I feel comfortable in there,” Roosa said. “It’s one of the few times I socialize with people.”

Through Anime Club, Roosa gained confidence, which prompted him to develop a strong opinion against others having low self-confidence and self-esteem.

“It’s not right [when people insult themselves]; they shouldn’t think down on themselves because it could lead to many bad things,” Roosa said.

To help keep up his confidence, Roosa lived by a quote from the Japanese Anime television show Gurren Lagann. The quote read, “Don’t forget. Believe in yourself. Not in the you who believes in me. Not in the me who believes in you. Believe in the you who believes in yourself.”

“This motto means a lot to me, and I’m reminded of it every once in awhile from a close friend or my brother. Every time I hear it, I get goose bumps, and I picture the exact scene from the show it was on,” Roosa said. “Whenever I remember it, I feel as if I can pierce the heavens.”

With a nervous grin on his face, he walked through the doors into what would be his third high school in three years.

“[The hardest part] was leaving my friends behind and starting off new from scratch,” senior Pablo Moragon said.

Moragon left Franklin High School in Franklin, Texas, to attend Edgewater High School after the summer of 2011.

“When I first moved over here to Orlando, it was a little frustrating when I was at Edgewater, but now that I’m at Boone, I love it,” Moragon said.

The transfer to Edgewater occurred after Moragon’s parents divorced. He moved to Orlando to live with his dad; a year later, they moved again, and he transferred again.

Despite his transitions between different states and schools, Moragon looked forward to another change in his future.

In 2013, he planned to attend school in Sweden through Rotary, a student exchange program, where he would take part in another year of schooling, even though he already completed all of his required credits.

Moragon’s interest in attending school in Europe originated from his mother, who was also a part of Rotary, the student exchange program that coordinated his trip.

“[I’m excited to be a part of Rotary] because it’s going to be a life-changing experience. I’m going to see the world through a different perspective,” Moragon said. “I’ll learn new customs; it’ll be really different than what I’m used to.”

Picking up her Kindle, junior Alyssa Rivera found herself instantaneously lost in the world of her drawings.

“I’d describe [my creativity] as being open-minded and seeing things [through] different points of view,” Rivera said.

Her creativity allowed Rivera to excel in her school assignments.

“I always try to make my projects stand out by putting as much creativity in them [as I can],” Rivera said. “Especially when it’s displaying a project, I try my best to make it capture someone else’s attention.”

School also provided a forum for Rivera to expand her artistic talents beyond drawing.

“I’ve been taking ceramics, and I love it. You can create your own things the way you want it to look,” Rivera said.

Through ceramics, Rivera expanded on her previous artistic abilities, as well as gained a greater appreciation for the creative opportunities art provided.

“Knowing that there are endless possibilities of what I could draw helps me keep an open mind,” Rivera said.

Drawing was her creative outlet and helped Rivera view life in a new light.

“I see things differently when I draw,” Rivera said. “[Drawing] makes me feel in control of my own creations, like I can create anything I want.”

Without a care in the world, junior Antony Morata blocked out the noise of students worried about the upcoming test and decided instead to not think about the stress. Morata took a different approach to life by adapting a worry-free personality.

“I feel more confident if I don’t worry, and I will enjoy a situation much more,” Morata said.

However, Morata didn’t always exude cheerfulness and relaxation.

“Before, I was much more aggressive, which I probably harbored due to being self conscious, without me actually being aware of it,” Morata said.

Morata decided to change his attitude after losing a friend because of the way he acted in middle school.

“My friend was sick of my aggression and decided to move on. I was torn apart,” Morata said.

After altering his persona to be more cheerful and relaxed, Morata was able to make amends with his friend.

“I did a major change with the help of my friend, as well [as] gained my [care-free] attitude towards some things,” Morata said. “[My personality is unique because] I’m easy going, so I’m able to make friends. I have good social skills due to my personality.”

In Kay Godfrey’s math classes, six students shared the same seat but not the same experience.

SMART Boards and Nooks enhanced classroom lessons

EVERYBODY’S TALKNG ABOUT

NookReading classes used a set of Nooks to read novels, define vocabulary and highlight words for their lesson.

1 2 3 4 5Smart Board Ladybug tablet Active Expressions

Both teachers and students used SMART Boards in math classes to solve problems.

English teachers used Ladybugs to show students how to set up research papers.

Teachers used tablets to write notes for students on their boards while walking around their classrooms.

Classes used the Active Expression responders to review before a test.

After the bell rang and the students settled into their seats, the teacher turned on the SMART Board, ready to start the lesson.

When math teacher Stephanie Schields asked who wanted to work a problem, freshman Pamela Cana shot her hand in the air, eager for a chance to complete the problem in front of her peers.

“Almost the whole class uses the SMART Board,” Cana said. “Whenever the teacher asks, everyone raises their hand because they want to write on it. No one wants to use the whiteboard [anymore].”

SMART Boards were just one of the multiple forms of technology on campus. While mostly math classes used SMART Boards, Nooks, tablets, ELMOS, projectors, computers and active expressions were used to enhance the lessons in a variety of subjects.

In reading classes, students used Nooks two to three times per week instead of bringing a bound book. Using Nooks allowed students to highlight words they didn’t know and also made it easier for them to access different chapters and pages.

Because students took the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test on the computer, the school purchased Nooks to help students read on a screen, as they were not accustomed to doing so.

“[Technology] helps students become more engaged. Even the kids who sleep in class stay awake. It makes [learning] fun,” reading teacher Danielle Heath said.

These new forms of technology were a different way for

students to stay involved and participate in class; however, there was also a negative side. This technology was often unreliable and difficult for both teachers and students to operate.

“[The technology] doesn’t always work. Sometimes there are glitches and it can frustrate the students. [It also] takes a while to set up, but it’s worth it,” Heath said.

In addition to causing technical difficulties, having technology in the classroom could be distracting for students when they were trying to concentrate on their lessons.

“Sometimes it’s hard to figure something out on the computer that I don’t already know how to do,” junior Tyler Smith said.

Overall, students like Smith felt positively about the new resources being used in the classroom. Technology made it easier for teachers to instruct and explain lessons to students.

“The ELMO is good for taking notes because the teacher can show you new things, like how to set up a paper. It helps you get to another level of success,” Smith said.

On Oct. 12, the school won $100,000 grant from the State Farm Celebrate My Drive event, which would be used to improve technology. This money went toward iPads for teachers, computers, projectors without carts, student response systems and updated labs.

“We can always improve [technology]. It will keep the kids wanting to learn,” Heath said. / / / content by OLIVIA REES

NOOK AT ME NOW. In Christine McCall’s reading class, junior Yazmin Caraballo reads I Wish You Were Dead on a Nook. “I like [using Nooks in class] because it gives you experience in high school that [can help you] in the future,” Caraballo said. Students chose different books to read on the Nooks.

GET SMART. Volunteering to work a problem in Algebra I, freshman Austin Mercer writes on a SMART Board. “[Technology] helps me learn better because it’s more efficient and makes problems easier to understand,” Mercer said. Mercer believed he learned better with visuals aids like the SMART Board, instead of just hearing the lessons.

CLICK, CLICK. To review for a test, freshman Malik Thompson uses an Active Expression to submit an answer. “I feel good because it gives me confidence that I am prepared for a test,” Thompson said. SMILE. Using a tablet, English teacher Amy London-Tauriello lectures in class. “[My favorite part about using technology] is student interest. With Prezis and tablet use, my students pay more attention to the lecture than they ever did without it,” London-Tauriello said.

There were 13 SMART Boards on campus.

Y18. Feature photo

This is picture is on page 006-007. I picked this picture because it was published on the Student Life divider. I think it has good depth of field, it fills the frame and captures the emotion of the powder puff game. It also won an FSPA Feature Photo All-Forida award, which is why I am submitting it again.

Y32. Academic spread

This spread is page 046-047 in the Academics section. I picked this spread because it is one of my favorite designs I did this year. Although it was hard to fit so much copy on the pages, I think it turned out well and stands out among the other pages in the section.

Y4. Academic writing

This is page 060-061 in the Academics section. I want to submit this writing because it is one of the best stories I have written all year. I think it had good quotes and I did a good job of covering the new technology that is being used in the classrooms.

Looking back, I have grown so much since last year, and feel this is evident in all of my work. I learned new things everyday that helped me improve my work and make it the best it could be. Shifting from a staffer to an editor, I was able to design a whole section this year. After creating a section, I feel that I have a good eye for design and am comfortable with my abilities. I was able to break rules in order to make my designs more creative and interesting. This can be seen I am my portfolio this year. Last year I used brushes because it was the easy thing to do. This

year I kept my portfolio clean and simple and tied together the elements better than I did last year. My portfolio this year is not extremely complex, but I think that the overall look of it is more consistent than last years. Not only has my design improved, but I also feel the my writing has grown stronger. I wrote multiple stories this year without getting resubbed like I often would in the past. I always learn from my mistakes so I can be sure not to make them again. In the end I am proud of my growth and think it is accurately displayed in my portfolio this year.
