Now that the school year has begun in New York, the editors and staff at Tesserae are back at it. First on the agenda? Our annual 12 Hours of Yearbook retreat, held on the first Saturday of school from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

In today's podcast, Tesserae's co-editors-in-chief Lauren Thomas, Kelly Hoyt and Kristin Hauptman will take you through the goal-setting, planning and facilitation of what has become an almost decade-long mainstay for our program, sharing advice for advisers and staffs looking to facilitate their own weekend workshop.
