One thing that helps is to sell ads to parents and businesses. Graduating "seniors" would have pictures submitted for their ads and you'd price the ads per quarter page up to full page.
The actual design for the yearbook is pretty easy. Most of the pages are class pictures which are mostly a grid with a text section to one side for student names. Pictures are labeled. It's really easy. I was on yearbook staff in middle school and co-editor of my med school yearbook. Unless they have everything on computer now, everything is done on grid paper so you just have to count blocks and draw out your layouts. It definitely is not too hard for a 7th grader. I did 40 pages all by myself in med school in a week. The creative stuff is the extra pages where you can do collages, ads, etc. That might be the 8th graders job.
