FUNDAMENTALS

A traditional yearbook is entirely paper, which makes it is hard to manage, produce and deliver. What's more, it is hard to maintain and access over time. SchoolFlicker, on the other hand, is truly the first paperless yearbook for schools. This means it is completely digital and in addition, it comes with picture, video, audio and text. SchoolFlicker is easily accessible anytime, anywhere on the phone or on the web. Optionally, it can also be downloaded as a pdf.
