AMARILLO,TEXAS -- The Randall High School yearbook is getting some state wide attention.

The school's yearbook was awarded the Bronze Star from the Interscholastic League Press Conference on Sunday. This award places the yearbook in the top 10 percent of yearbooks statewide. It was one of 33 yearbooks statewide to be recognized with a Star award from the ILPC, which is an affiliate of the University Interscholastic League, and is one of the nation's largest state high school association of student newspapers and yearbooks.

"Yearbooks from all over Texas were sent to ILPC for a critique and judging," ILPC Director Jeanne Acton said.

The judges rated the book and nominated the top books for Stars. The Star nominated books were then sent before a panel of judges.

"More than 50 yearbooks were nominated for Stars, and from that, 33 were selected to receive either a Gold, Silver or Bronze Star," Acton said.

The award was presented during the 83rd annual ILPC state convention at The University of Texas at Austin April 11.
