Does anybody have some suggestions for a high school yearbook theme? Preferably it should be a passuk, otherwise just a Hebrew word or phrase. I have to come up with it within the next couple weeks, and as of now I'm stuck. Also, if you have any ideas of where I could look for some psukim that would be good themes, let me know. Thanks!

What about Perek Shira. I know its not a phrase but
1- Its "trendy" now
2- there are lots of nice visual imagery you can use for the design of the yearbook
3- it can be a nice metaphor, just like all the creations praise Hashem in their own way, each student has different talents and strong points that they will use in their avodas Hashem and in their daily life.

Another thing I've seen is "Time":
passing time, for everything there is a season, etc
its very yearbook-y but it works!

Also I was thinking that precious stones/treasure would be a good theme, but I cant think of the passuk to relate it to.

thanks guys, keep `em coming. so far i really like the perek shira idea b/c we are trying to find something that can connect to the class, not just some random theme. and nothing too cliche!

How should it connect to the class?

Existwhere? - I mean that it's supposed to be something more along the lines of achdus, friendship, growth, reflections, etc., rather than just a topic like footprints or flowers or something like that.

Sounds like a good h.com challenge. How would you connect Perek Shira to the class?

Beautiful. I really like it, Nechama.
