The Midlothian High yearbook is having a moment. The yearbook won a big award on Sept. 30, then won another prestigious recognition the very next day.
Varsity Yearbook judged the 2023-24 edition of the Trojan yearbook to be in the top 1% nationally, making it the top yearbook in central Virginia.
The Virginia High School League notified Midlothian High on Oct. 1 that it is among just six 2025 winners of the Col. Charles E. Savedge Award for Sustained Excellence in Scholastic Journalism. The award honors sustained excellence: A school must earn at least five VHSL Trophy Class awards within seven years. Midlothian High is the first Chesterfield County school to win this award.
English teacher Bryan Fischer is the yearbook adviser at Midlothian High. He credits the students on the yearbook staff for the awards, saying, “It's really all about these kids. The staff has worked hard and shown dedication.”
