This year’s globetrotting yearbook theme is AROUND THE WORLD. This theme is open to your interpretation. So whether it means travel, or global unity, or something else altogether, incorporate this theme into your cover design in any creative way you want. The winning design will be featured on the front cover.
We are looking for original artwork on 8.5 x 11 paper. Designs need to be hand-drawn. Most importantly designs must include the school name: Oster Elementary, and school year: 2021-2022 with everything spelled correctly. The background design should fill the page, but please keep any text a half-inch from the paper edge. Full details can be found here: https://bit.ly/OsterYBContest21-22
