Okay, it's a scrapbook. Whatever. Your assignment is to gather material for a scrapbook that will memorialize the last four years of your life. For each year of high school, you are required to have at least four pages organized into the following categories:
(1) Student Life -- life in school (at River Oaks or other)
(2) Personal Life -- family, church, sports, trips, etc.
(3) Culture -- Pop Culture/Politics/Headlines, etc.
NOTE: Two sheets front and back for every year = 16 total pages (8 sheets). You can certainly go over this minimum requirement.
Although everyone is required to use these same basic categories, consider them as starting points. You can break each category into sections if you'd like. Use headings and titles for each section. Use copies of photos or printouts for images. You can use text and graphics, as well. You can find pop culture and current events for each year of high school on the Internet.
Headings are very important -- print or cut out headings and headlines, or create your own
Some suggestions for info on the year 2004 (navigate to the other years while you are there):
CNN's Year in Review -- 2004
Time Magazine's Best & Worst (2004)
The Year in Review from Infoplease.
You can use any of the above as a jumping-off point, as well. The Infoplease site, for example, will lead you to Oscar Winners from all four (five) years.

The grade is divided into two equal parts:
- format/requirements/content
- organization/clarity/design
