Thanks so much! I wasn't really going to arrange it into specific grades for subjects or general forms, but rather just into year levels. This way, if someone has an rp where their character is in a class with another character, no one will point to the yearbook and be like 'excuse me they're not in maths together'. And besides, I don't quite understand the American school system.

Claire and I wrote up this thing where we said what subjects our characters did and wrote them down, we added these subjects that we call electives over here, but idk what they're called in America. I think it might be kind of similar to what Tanni was talking about with the 3 and 4 year programs. We just had some basic elective classes which were:

Art: Drama: Vocational Education: Computer Science: Home Economics: Languages:
 * Sculpture/Pottery
 * Drawing/Painting
 * Photography
 * Drama
 * Woodwork
 * Metalwork
 * Graphic Design
 * Computer and web programming
 * Cooking
 * Nutrition
 * French
 * Italian
 * Spanish

If this was an Australian yearbook (by Australian, I just mean from my school) it would have sort of pages with a synopsis kind of of the class written by the teacher who takes it, but because they're classes and there is a certain amount of electives that they have to take, it doesn't really say who is in it, it might just have some pictures of students in those classes. idk

Anyway, what I'm trying to say with this is that I'd consider all of these, except for maybe drama (???) would probably not be clubs. This is my understanding but an explanation of how this would work in America would be much appreciated.
