For close to a hundred years, a student staff has annually produced the Jonesboro-Hodge High School “Kraftsman” Yearbook which documents the activities, events, student information and pictures of that year. 

You can find one in the home of virtually every single student that graduated from Jonesboro-Hodge. Thanks to the incredibly talented staff of the 2024 Kraftsman, the yearly annual is now recognized ALL OVER THE WORLD!. 

This past week the administration of Jonesboro-Hodge announced that the 2024 “Kraftsman” Yearbook has been selected to be in the 2024 Picaboo Yearbook Hall of Fame. 

Each year Picaboo Yearbooks hosts an international competition in order to recognize students, staff and yearbook advisors who demonstrate outstanding achievement through the creation of their yearbook. There are four contest judging categories: Overall Yearbook, Cover Design, Page Design and Picaboo Originals  

Jonesboro-Hodge was selected to the Hall of Fame by winning first place in the Yearbook Cover division and second place in both Page Design and Picaboo Originals. 

“This achievement recognizes Jonesboro-Hodge High School for putting together a notable Picaboo Yearbook original at the high school level. The JHHS yearbook was selected from hundreds of schools that submitted entries from around the world,” Picaboo quoted in a statement.

 “Our students were immediately drawn to the Gold Standard theme,” stated JHHS yearbook advisor Emily Carpenter. “They were hoping for something clean and bold and this one fit the bill. We used the backgrounds, blocks of color, and lines to bring all the pages together.”

Congratulations to the yearbook team at Jonesboro-Hodge High School who also will receive a $100.00 award towards their 2025 yearbook purchase.
