This helps us to determine our budget.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: (FAQ) |
Q: Why don’t we get our yearbook in the spring? |
Like many schools, Grand Haven does a fall delivery for the following reasons:
|
Q: Why are our yearbooks so expensive? We know students at other schools who only pay $30-$35 for their books. |
We are a very large school with nearly 2000 students and dozens of sports and clubs. To cover all of these, we have to produce a very, very large book of 300 or so pages. Smaller schools can do their book in fewer pages, which means less cost. We’ve done everything we can to keep costs as low as possible. However, at our current sales level of approximately 800-1000 books, we are essentially making zero profit off our books. We could save money by cutting pages, not covering all sports or clubs, eliminating color or using a cheaper grade of cover and paper materials, but we are committed to bringing you the best possible product. We are still a student publication and we make mistakes but we are dedicated to continuing to improve and upgrade our book. |
Q: How do I order a yearbook? |
Order forms are available on the high school website, in the main office, or in room 0205. Also see above for sales dates. |
Q: How do I get a receipt? |
As we have gone to mail ordering, we have learned that receipt giving is tricky. If you would like to receive a receipt for your mail order purchase, please include one of the following:
|
Q: Do I need to design my own ad? |
A: While you are certainly welcome to design your own ad, we can also design them for you. If you are submitting your own ad, we need camera-ready artwork, preferably submitted on a cd or fit to size (scanning or changing sizes sometimes results in lost resolution). Please submit photos as .jpg files, and designed ads as .pdf files. |
Q: How do I pay for my ad? |
A: With a check or money order to Grand Haven High School. They can be mailed, care of GHHS Yearbook, 17001 Ferris, Grand Haven, MI 49417. |
