QHSSYC Yearbook inducted into Walsworth Gallery of Excellence, TWO years in a row!!!!

The Queens High School for the Sciences Yearbook has been inducted into Walsworth Publishing Company’s Gallery of Excellence.  Congratulations to Ms. Peritz and all the students who put in long hours making the yearbook special!

The Gallery of Excellence is a showcase of the company’s top yearbooks. Books selected for the gallery demonstrate the true mastery of a yearbook’s purpose: to provide thorough coverage of the school year with interesting stories that highlight all types of students using well-written copy, stunning photography and trendy design. Only a small percentage of yearbooks published by Walsworth are submitted to the gallery each year.

Many students and advisors will have the opportunity to see the QHSSYC yearbook, as it is used as an example by Walsworth salespeople nationwide. The yearbooks are also put on display at regional, state and national conventions and workshops, and Walsworth uses excerpts from the winning books as illustrations in resource materials.
