YEAR-BOOKS WERE NEVER really a huge thing in Irish secondary schools. Sure, they existed, but American high-schools had COMMITTEES and their own personal photo with their own personal quote.
So this is what we propose we do, get Irish schools to go the whole hog when it comes to yearbooks. It’s the education reform we truly need. Take inspiration from these brave pioneers.
1. Quotes inspire confidence
2. Impart new knowledge
3. Encourage students to spread the word of their heroes
4. Those they aspire to be
5. The most important teachings from those who paved the way
6. It encourages them to demonstrate their scientific know-how
…and get around the editor’s filter
7. Show off friendships
8. Innovative ways to get around problems are born
9. Burns are administered
10. There’s nothing to hide anymore
11. They can show off the wisdom learned from those years of education
12. The books they’ve read
13. And the music they’ve listened to
