Around the state of Utah, school districts and their teachers are all working hard to find the perfect balance of what returning to school will look like this fall.
What will your “back to school” look like?
We have been taking note of the many different options to choose from; hybrid-learning, back to the classroom, or online to name a few. As we get closer to that first day back there is one thing we know for sure: returning to school this fall will be unlike any other year we have experienced.
As past educators ourselves, we understand how teachers can be faced with a balancing act of managing time, resources, and energy. This year, the tightrope they balance on seems to be thinning — for everyone. Educators everywhere need a safety net to rely on. Entourage Yearbooks has been committing ourselves, as your yearbook company, to be your safety net during this unprecedented time. At whatever level, your school has implemented changes to provide a safe education this year, Entourage is ready to assist you with more than your yearbook.
Entourage Yearbooks has taken the time to find flexible programs and resources that can adapt to any teacher’s needs; no matter where their classroom is this year. Start strong, start secure, and stay connected by reading more about these COVID-19 solutions for your school.

Book Building Services
Creating a yearbook may not be at the top of your priority list this school year, and it doesn’t have to be! Let our Special Project Assistance team (SPA) do all the hard work for you. Even if all you are able to do this year is upload photos, our specialized team of designers is ready to layout templates, insert portrait pages, and even proofread your book before production. We are living in a historic time that should be documented even at the local level, so what better way to do that than through your yearbook? And what better way to relax about your yearbook creation than visiting our SPA team. Learn more about our book building services by clicking here.
Next Generation Grant
Teachers are incredibly underfunded, and have been for quite some time. This year has put an even greater financial strain on those who have already spent so much out of their own pockets. No one should have to worry about whether they will have enough masks or sanitizers, or even how they can afford remote learning tools. That’s why Entourage created a way for schools to apply for extra funding, wherever they may need it most during the COVID-19 pandemic. We cannot call ourselves a next generation company if we do not find ways to keep the next generation secure. Find out how your school can be qualified today by clicking here.
Individual Shipping
During the spring months, we witnessed many schools needing to close their doors to keep everyone safe and healthy. This put a burden on how to effectively offer yearbook deliveries
without creating more stress around the already stressful situation. Entourage quickly came up with options for schools to sign up for an individual shipping method that worked best for their unique situations. Every order is automatically tracked with shipping rates that work for anyone who has chosen the ship-to-home method. We have kept this program in place for any schools who are continuing to stay closed this school year, as we want to encourage those who are helping to stop the curve.

No matter how your school year looks, one thing that never will change is what the yearbook represents. Entourage Yearbooks will help you stay connected and keep the yearbook tradition alive while documenting history, unifying students, and sharing the memories of the school year.
