In the 2016 Wildcat, the Harding Academy yearbook staff took a simple, well-known, three-word phrase that played off their school color, “In the Red,” and gave it special meaning for their school and their year. On the opening pages, the book immediately connects the theme phrase and a business operating with too much debt, explaining, “our immense debt allows us to live a more gracious, humble, and thankful life.” The theme is maintained over the next several spreads, with students from the private Christian school expressing gratitude for the debt they owe to the school and their families. The school’s color red can be spotted throughout the book, beautifully adding splashes of color on divider pages and in headlines.
