Renée BurkeLegend Yearbook AdviserWm. R. Boone High School2000 South Mills AvenueOrlando, FL 32806
Dear Mrs. Burke:
As a current staff member, I feel I have grown as a journalist and am ready to take on the responsibility of an editor. Please accept my resume for your review and consideration for the Co-Editor in Chief position for the 2012-2013 school year.
With my skills of writing copy and captions, taking book worthy pictures, Photoshop and InDesign skills and time management skills, I feel I am well qualified to be Co-Editor in Chief of the Legend Yearbook. I would use this position to better the publication and lead and encourage the staff to do the same. It would also grant me the possibility to grow as a journalist and leader.
My will to succeed drives me to put my heart into everything I do. As Co-Editor, I would take the job seriously and complete every deadline to the best of my ability. To be an editor you must be very skilled with technology and with my experience and quick learning skills, I could easily fit in with the experienced editors.
While the enclosed resume thoroughly describes my experience and accomplishments, an interview to discuss my further plans in this position would better display my attributes. I would appreciate to meet with you at a convenient time, thank you for your review and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Respectfully yours,
Brittany Hope

personal essay
My love of journalism began on accident. I was placed in the class by mistake, but it was a blessing in disguise as the beginning of something more than just an elective. Journalism was very new to me, as I have never been very interested in academic hobbies. Being a part of many dance competitions and classes, I never had time for extra hobbies. After the first semester of Journalism I knew this would be something I would love. Applying for yearbook has changed many aspects of my life, and it continues to do so. Through journalism, I even discovered a new career to take on; Public Relations. This class has taught me how to design, write, attract readers and take publish-worthy photos, which will lead me to be successful in not only yearbook, but in college and in the workplace. I have contributed my time to journalism, keeping a calendar of my schedule for every single day of the year to ensure I had ample time to put my all into my work for the yearbook. Journalism will surely be engraved into my heart for the rest of my life. Even if my plans change, the memories of being on staff will last forever.
self evaluation
The knowledge I have gained from journalism is incomparable to any other subject I have learned. I am now more skilled working on the computer and know all of the basics in using InDesign, Photoshop, Adobe Bridge, iCloud computing and using advanced cameras. As a staffer, I learned how to work together with my partners and editors and be patient, but also to never assume others will get the job done. To work as a team, I learned to keep tabs on my partners work on top of mine to get the job done. At first it was difficult, but I learned to let others know to stay on task without coming off as rude. This contributed to my ability to meet deadline almost every time. When we had to sell ads in the beginning of the year, I was shocked at how difficult it was to actually make a sale. I thought business owners would buy a full page to support, but I quickly learned that is not how the real world worked, In order to make a sale, I had to put my best foot forward by dressing professionally and making the client feel as though they needed the ad. It was a new experience for me. Journalism I taught me the most about journalism ethics, but this year I’ve learned more about photography. After the first photo day, I learned to be patient and realize for every hundred photos I take, there will only be a few book-worthy pictures. The largest lesson I learned through journalism is that it takes dedication. If I was behind on my work, I’d have to stay after school and sometimes even sacrifice Bravette practice to meet deadline. All of these components will lead me to be more successful in my future and when I get my first job.

My most significant piece is the administration spread. I am most proud of this because it was my first deadline met, and I did it all on my own. I took almost every picture on the page, wrote the copy and captions and interviewed each person myself. This was a great feat considering it was my first deadline by myself. My copy is also impressive for one of my first stories. It is to the point and flows very well. It was a large challenge trying to reach each administrator, as they were always in meetings or too busy to interview. Pictures also became a challenge because many administrators were behind the scenes of events and during the school day, so most of the pictures I had were boring. This spread was a mess up until two weeks before deadline. After I heard a girl in my story was supposed to have brain surgery, I was convinced I wouldn’t ever finish. Miraculously, I got a hold of her and got the interview I needed. Soon after that everything fell into place, and my spread was completed on time, beautifully.

As for most staffers, deadline one is always the most difficult. I had a hard time getting the hang of deadlines at first, especially writing copy. My stories were chopping and off topic, and at first they weren’t in yearbook style. It was difficult for me to be assertive towards both my partner and the students we were using in the spread to receive information. All of our pictures were posed and uninteresting. Overall, I think everything on the spread could’ve used more effort. In the end, the layout, copy, photos and captions had many changes to it from the editor because my partner and I couldn’t get it right the first time. This was the only deadline I did not meet and I was disappointed in myself for not working harder. I think the spread turned out beautiful, but most of it was not my own work, which I dislike.

Senior Lot Painting 9-19_Hope064.JPG This is one of my strongest photos this year. It displays good photo composition such as depth of field and rule of thirds. It also fills the frame and shows a form of action. I like it because you can tell she is focusing on writing her quote perfectly for her parking spot. I had to lay on my stomach to capture her face and focus in on the quote as well.

varsity flag football 3-13_bhope.jpg I was most impressed by this photo I took. I have never shot a sport event and I was very nervous. After taking hundreds of blurry, uninteresting pictures, I came across this photo. Only Bailey is in focus, which almost makes her seem three dimensional. She’s frozen in mid play, and you can see how focused she is in her facial expression. My favorite part is how her hair swayed to the side from faking right and is frozen in place. I am most proud of this photo.

Senior Lot Painting 9-19_Hope089.JPG Also from painting the senior parking spots, this is one of my better photos. The depth of field makes her seem like she is coming out of the frame. I really like how I shot the ground leading up to her, it gives the picture a more interesting angle. Again, I captured the focus in her facial expression.

I was an asset to the staff and the 2012 edition of Legend primarily because of my dedication. Almost always I put forth my best effort in my work and I spent an immense amount of time working for my best. I spent my research class working on deadlines to get ahead or catch up. I also came after school and even sometimes missed the beginning of my dance practice to work. I think I was extremely dedicated and it proved true in my abilities to balance my busy schedule to meet deadline. Deadline three would be my prime example of dedication. When my editor quit, the club spreads were left not designed. That, on top of my lack of photos of not-already-pictured officers, left me worried about my deadline. I stayed after school an entire week to work to search through almost every applicable folder for class councils pictures and finally have them to create a layout.
ref lection 5
One problem I found recurring throughout the year was not finding a balance of students to picture and quote on a spread. With each deadline, I didn’t have much variety on whom to use. It became a growing challenge from deadline to deadline because the available students were narrowed down as the year went on. I began writing down every student or teacher I could use and made two lists; one for pictures and one for quotes. After I separated them, I had a better sense of who I needed to shoot or interview. This helped me stay organized and prepared for the deadline. Even though I only began making these lists later in the year, I have learned from the situation that you must plan ahead in order to shoot quality photos of the students you can picture. Next year as clubs editor, I will be sure to advise this to the staffers and continue doing it for my own deadlines.
ref lection 6
After the first semester, I realized my greatest weakness was time management. I procrastinated too often and couldn’t find a way to manage my schedule better. Soon after though, I quickly got the hang of managing my time. I started a calendar for my deadlines and I went through my folders well before each deadline began to sort out who I could use and what events I needed to plan on attending for information and pictures. This in turn made me less stressed and I received better grades on my work. I also had extra time sometimes to help others with their work as well. Overall, I think I improved my time managing skills and it has reflected on my attitude and work.

What is your favorite part of flag football?

The ball soared over head as senior Jaci Chastain maneuvered through the players to grab the interception for a touchdown against the Olympia Titans.
“The team worked well together during the play because all of the zones were covered, which allowed me to catch the ball and run it back,” Chastain said. “The touchdown felt great.”
Together, the girls shut out the Titans, 45-0. The girls’ greatest advantage was having a myriad of diverse athletes with previous athletic training, leading to a winning streak.
“We have everything,” coach Ken Hensley said. “Our soccer and lacrosse players give us stamina, basketball players give us our quick hands and footwork, the track girls give us speed.”
Along with athleticism, key players displayed leadership to drive each other to win. Defense captain junior Anisha Holloway encouraged the girls to do well by ensuring they were focused, in their zones and communicating during plays.
As a rusher, Holloway also set examples for her teammates by staying dedicated. In the game against Edgewater, a player elbowed her during a play, resulting in a black eye. Instead of sitting out, she continued to play through the pain, ending the game with four sacks and a close victory, 14-13.
“I knew as a leader I couldn’t let my team down, so I just sucked it up and finished the game,” Holloway said.
With a combined effort of athleticism and leadership, the team went undefeated through Senior Night. At home, the girls shut out their toughest competitor, Timber Creek, 25-0. The girls had to work together to defeat the also undefeated Wolves and win their way to states.
“I feel that each athlete brings her own personal piece of the puzzle to the team,” Chastain said. “What one person lacks, another makes up for. We all want to win and most importantly we have a good time playing together.”

Ideas bounced from student to student as they met in class for the first time. The officers sat together, desks in a circle, to brainstorm activities to better the school.
All Sophomore, Junior and Senior Class Council officers took a mandatory leadership class to help them learn more of the fundamentals. The new elective provided an environment for the officers to work on their leadership skills and class projects.
“Being together everyday, we’ve learned each others’ strengths and weaknesses and what makes each other tick,” Junior Class secretary William McMillin said. “It helps us work together better to get along.”
Even though the school required all class council officers to take leadership, freshmen officers were exempt from the rule. With the elections so late, they couldn’t switch electives.
Freshman Council had to find time outside of school to meet, come up with ideas for the class and plan projects. This caused them to miss bonding opportunities and leadership lessons that the upperclassmen learned.
“[I would take leadership] because I like that all of the officers can meet together and talk as a whole group,” Freshman Class treasurer McKenna Crager said. “I could also get help from experienced officers on my projects and be more successful.”
In class, the officers took time to work with each other on their projects. Having all grade levels in the same class proved to be an advantage for the newer members.
“The younger officers look up to the more experienced upperclassmen, and the older [students] can help the younger ones with projects they have worked on before,” sponsor
Officers Jamie Hoffmann said.
Every Tuesday and Thursday the officers sat together with Hoffmann to read from 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, a book with tips on how to become a successful teen leader.
“The officers have really proved themselves as leaders and made the most out of [being a part of class council] for me,” sophomore George Barr said.
Leadership class also served as a stress reliever for the officers. They took breaks and bonded like any other team by playing games like human ladder and races on yoga balls.
“It’s nice to relax and play games together, especially when we’re in the middle of a project and the stress really gets to you,” McMillin said. “Leadership gives us that time to become closer.”
[brittany hope]
weigh in. After school, Junior Class vice president Paul Campbell weighs cans for the food drive. “I like to help those who are less fortunate because I know what it feels like,” Campbell said. The food went to the Salvation Army.
The jingling sounds of change filled the halls as students dropped money into their teachers’ piggy banks. During Kiss the Pig week, Sophomore Class Council collected money in a contest to see which class could collect the most for the needy.
Each day after school, Sophomore Class members met to count the money collected. The money went towards groceries for Thanksgiving baskets that were given to the families who couldn’t afford dinner for the holiday. Teacher Robin King, representing the Sophomore Class, raised $576 and won the contest.
“I wanted to win Kiss the Pig because Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I think everyone should be able to have a wonderful Thanksgiving,” King said.

To release stress and goof off during school, Sophomore Class vice president Katharyn Lindborg races on a bouncy ball. “[Leadership] is a great time for us officers to bond,” Lindborg said.

Administration students and faculty formed positive relationships
She walked into the discipline office, where consolation greeted her. In an atmosphere expected to be uninviting, administrators provided a means of comfort, formed relationships with students and helped them through tribulations inside and outside the classroom. With these impactful bonds formed, the student lives were altered for the better.
For senior Marlin Bridget, the discipline office was a place she could go to escape from a hectic day to sit and talk to administrative dean Elizabeth Smith.
“I think some students don’t think I’m nice, but most believe I am honest and are comfortable to come to me,” Smith said.
Bridget found Smith as an outlet, and they formed a close bond during her four years. Frequent visits that were first due to poor behavior over time turned into periodic appearances to update Smith about her life. Having this safe place helped Bridget continue her positive demeanor and do well in school.
“She helped me improve into a better person,” Bridget said. “She was the only person that could calm me down and [she] was always open to talk to.”
After a troublesome two years in high school, Bridget took the advice from Smith and made changes to her personal life. With Smith’s help, she ended her negative days in discipline.
“[The] advice she gave me was to never let negative comments get to me. She told me to not talk back, be the better person and let it go. I listened,” Bridget said. “The change in my life and the advice Mrs. Smith gave me impacted my life in ways I couldn’t imagine.”
Administration strove to change the lives of students not only in school, but after school as well. Extra-curricular activities gave students ways to interact with faculty. For assistant principal Carlota Iglesias, this was her outreach to students. By sponsoring The Bollywood Club, Iglesias uplifted students’ spirits.
“When I go to the club meetings, she helps me by making me laugh and smile after a long, hard day at school. She keeps me upbeat,” sophomore Alexis Sheppard said.
In the meetings, the students bonded through learning about culture and dance. They watched videos together, performed dances for audiences and discovered new music.
Iglesias’ goal was to establish valuable relationships through Bollywood. Members grew close and created a friendly environment for students to relax.
“I wanted to create something at Boone that was positive for students, not just a hard day at school,” Iglesias said.

Between classes, assistant principal Ron Anderson explains to senior Kevin Kouyo the importance of belts. “The way a student comes to school sets the tone for that student,” Anderson said. Administration was always on the look out for dress code violations. [2] this way. After a junior assembly, assistant principal Carlota Iglesias directs students. “[Administration] is the most beautiful profession in the whole world,” Iglesias said. Iglesias became assistant principal in 2006. [3] pep talk. Athletic director Doug Patterson speaks at a senior assembly about sports. “It was always my dream to oversee the athletic program,” Patterson said. Patterson organized sports schedules for the year. [4] joke around. At lunch, administrative dean Korey Washington jokes with junior Bridgette Norris. “I am happy to have the opportunity to redirect behavior,” Washington said. He was the 11th grade dean.
Tousent is A new office awaited him, vacant with just a desk. ID around his neck and
walkie- talkie on, assistant principal Luis Tousent prepared for the first day of his new
job, a transition from middle school to high school.
“I came to Boone to make it a better place,” Tousent said. “Every where you go, you
either add or subtract. I strive to add.”Tousent taught math for 17 years, 13
of them being in high school. He was a dean at Conway Middle School, one of the Reservation’s feeder schools,
for three years which prepared him for the larger school, allowing him to form close relationships with families before arriving.
“I get close to everyone around me, and already having those students know me is great,” Tousent said.
His primary responsibilities included facilities and the school website. Though he had other obligations, Tousent felt that dealing with students and building strong relationships was the most important.
“I want the staff, students and community to know I am here to support and listen,”
Tousent said. “I love and care about them.”

Y4 ACADEMIC WRITING.
My story on administration’s personal relationships with students is a more creative coverage of this year’s staff. I give the reader information that they most likely may have not known about administrators versus covering something they may have already known.

What is your favorite part of flag football?
Aquanette Stafford, junior“I mostly like practice because it is more laid back than high stress games. I do like games because as wide receiver I get the ball often, which I like. Also, we win a lot so it feels rewarding.”

Kaiyla Brooks, junior“My favorite part about flag football would be the teamwork we have on the field. Defense has its own little cheer we do, which pumps us up. We all high five each other after we pull a flag and cheer each other on.”
