In 1995, Center Focus Publishing completed its first ethnic publication commemorating the end of the first school year of Chicago's Romanian-American "Norwood Park Christian School". In the American tradition of yearbooks, this publication outlines the founding and activity of the so called "Romanian Christian School" of Chicago. With pictures and articles, on a total of 144 pages, out of which 44 are color, this book recorded many of the special moments. |

In 1996,
at the end of the second school year, we published another yearbook
for the "Romanian Christian School" of Chicago. This second edition, containing quality graphics and dozens of pictures compiled on 120 pages printed black and white, was just as effective and informative as the first publication in the Romanian School's outreach efforts within the Romanian-American community of metropolitan Chicago area. |

In 1997,
the third school-year's book of memories was published for the "Romanian
Christian School" of Chicago. An improvement in the quality of paper as well as in the printing process turned this publication into a true black and white photo-album coupled with articles meant to recognize accomplishments of top students, while reaching out to other parents in an attempt to win their participation. |

In 1998,
once again, Center Focus Publishing outreaches to the Romanian-American
community of Chicago while promoting the "Romanian Christian School"
through another yearbook. The activity of the Romanian school became
known even to the Romanian President Emil Constantinescu. Distribution
of this book also reached dignitaries in the Romanian Parliament and
its "Committee for Relations with Romanians Abroad". On a local note, former Illinois Governor Mr. Jim Edgar as well as newly elected Governor Mr. George Ryan, congratulated Norwood Park Christian School and Center Focus Publishing for their efforts within the Romanian-American community of Illinois in preserving the Romanian heritage. |
