>That's funny, because I was just about to compose a post saying quite 
the opposite!  When I was at school (a grammar, in Kent) we had 
a 'school magazine' every year which conatined photos, results from 
exams, sporting events, poems and short stories, reviews of school 
plays, articles about alumni, etc.  This has been going on for at 
least the last 40 years.  We also had a leaving book which was 
dedicated to photo montages of the final, leaving year.
AFAIK the majority of schools in our area, at least, did (and still 
do, 6 years on) the same thing.
The majority of people I knew at university had some kind of 'leaving 
momento year book' too, although only a minority had a regular school 
magazine.

I went to a private school and we also had a school magazine each year, much like the one described above. But is this the same thing as an American Yearbook?

Regardless of whether it is, I agree that finding some old school magazines might be a good way of finding out about MWPP.
