Fox news: customizing children's school yearbooks
Published : Monday, 18 Oct 2010, 10:07 AM MDT
MESA, Ariz. - It's the classic yearbook picture you have to love - but wouldn't it be nice to have more than just one picture?
A new yearbook company called Treering allows parents to add custom pages to their child's yearbook - anything from the first day of school to their favorite pets.
Red Mountain Ranch Elementary school in Mesa is trying it out this year.
"That's been the biggest challenge for us..is to try to include every student..more than just their individual portrait," said Red Mountain Ranch's Brenda Sibley.
"I thought it was pretty cool because then you can finally have your own personalized yearbook," said Chloe Smith.
It's easy to do. If your school signs up to have Tree Ring print the yearbook, all you have to do is go to the company's website and plugin pictures to a template. The first two pages are free, but it's $3.99 for each additional page.

Fox news 10: treering lets students customize yearbooks
MESA - Yearbooks are a great way to look back on school memories, but some kids have very few pictures of themselves in them.
Now, there's a solution -- customized yearbooks.
A Bay-area business called "Treering" allows parents and students to go online, add their own personal photos, and create their own yearbook pages.
Tuesday, that company showed off their stuff at Red Mountain Ranch Elementary in Mesa. Every year, students will get a traditional school yearbook, but they will also be able to print their personalized pages and add them to their yearbook.
"The yearbook traditionally has been about the school during the time that you were there, and there's no reason it can't be about you while you are there," says Aaron Greco, CEO of Treering yearbooks.
"I think it's really cool that I get to put whatever I want in there and pictures of my little brother and my friends so I can remember what I did that year," says student Megan Siblui.
Treering uses digital technology to print each student's custom version. Watch the video
