I'm Debbie Cohen

A letter from Northwestern Regional High School 7.

I had the privilege of working with Debbie during my first year of teaching. She served as my Yearbook Representative, and I remain thankful for her advice, guidance, encouragement and friendship during this time.

Debbie reached out before the school year even started. She was honest but reassuring. Debbie promptly answered any emails, phone calls or messages and I could always count on her to provide the information I needed. She was a partner and advocate in the process of creating a book of memories that my yearbook staff and I were incredibly proud of. Her vast knowledge of the industry and knowledge of the necessary procedures to reach a desirable result were invaluable. Debbie also had a way of explaining information in a way that was understandable for me and for my students.

I would highly recommend Debbie to any school that is lucky enough to have her assigned to them. She goes above and beyond in every way!

"It has been my absolute honor and pleasure to get to work with you over the past years! Debbie, Thank you for everything. Having you as our yearbook rep made this yearbook what it is!! This book looks absolutely amazing, thank you again Debbie!!"

-Andrew Porter, Editor In Chief, North Attleborough High School

"Debbie has been a critical piece in making our yearbook a success, and teaching my co-advisor and I the essentials of creating a book. She sacrificed her own time and energy to help us when we were stranded, and allowed us to produce a book we can be proud to call our own. On several occasions I called Debbie on a weekend expecting an answer on Monday and instead she called me back in less than an hour. She truly is the gem to my first year Yearbook Advisor experience. Debbie Cohen didn’t just help us make our first year great; she is the reason our first year was great."

"My name is Stacey DeLorenzo and I have been one of the yearbook advisors at West Bridgewater Middle Senior High School for twenty years. We have had the pleasure of working with Debbie as our representative for several years now. I wanted to take a moment to reach out to you personally and let you know what an amazing representative Debbie is.

Deb is incredibly kind and helpful. The extended knowledge she has in her field and the guidance she provides is key to what helps us have a successful yearbook team and produce a quality product at the end of each year. She is always available to help out and the speed with which she responds to inquiries or SOS emails for help is beyond any expectation that we could ever have for a representative.

2 When we made the switch to Walsworth we knew it was the best choice for us financially as a small school. What we didn't know was how fortunate we were when Deb was assigned to become the Walsworth representative for our school."

-Stacey DeLorenzo, Yearbook Adviser, West Bridgewater Middle Senior High School

"Debbie Cohen goes the extra mile every time. Not just the first year, but every year.  Our relationship with Debbie is collaborative.  She wants our yearbook to bring smiles to our students’ faces as much as we do. Our greatest regret is that we were not able to utilize all of Debbie’s great ideas (e.g., the use of elaborate themes, QR codes, summer workshops, etc.) Debbie was always there to pick up the slack and provide encouragement every week, either through email or in person. We cannot express our gratitude enough to Debbie Cohen for making our job as yearbook advisors manageable and fun."

"We have been most impressed with Deb. She brings enthusiasm and a very clear perspective to us as we have built our book this year. She has been available to us, either in person or via text or phone calls, to deal with our dilemmas as they arise. She has great vision in helping us be as creative as we can and still produce the best book possible." 

"Debbie Cohen has been a gem to work with in producing our yearbooks.  She is always there to lend a helping hand, assist in the training of our staff and developing our yearbook themes, and is a great asset to the yearbook adviser." 

"Deb’s personality is friendly and welcoming, which made the yearbook staff/students feel supported and heard as they worked through page creation.  She was always a sounding board for all creative ideas and was always an email, text, phone call, or school visit away.  Her responsiveness is unparalleled and always made me feel like we were working together like co-advisors.  Deb’s contagious spirit, kindness, and genuine care for others shine through and make her special. There is no question Norwood is lucky to have Deb as our contact/representative.  I am so excited to see what the future holds for our yearbook working with Walsworth and their amazing team.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if further information is needed or if I can expand upon my experiences."

"As a new high school yearbook advisor, I relied heavily on Debbie's expertise in publishing and sales. She was always quick to respond--whether we had technical questions or marketing issues, she was there for us. Debbie's easygoing and upbeat demeanor made her a pleasure to interact with. She consistently exceeded our expectations in every way. We wouldn't have had such a successful year without Debbie's energy and know-how."

"Debbie, it's been so great working with you!! We're delighted with our final product and you absolutely saved our finances this year. You are a wonderful human being. We'll be in touch about the spring supplement but I wanted to wish you a happy summer :)"
