<p>Do you have it on yoru school websites?? What topics do you write about</p>
<p>Our school newspaper used to be a bland, black and white monthly issue about random topics - sports, movies, random joke pages, teacher/student profiles.</p>
<p>Now it's 2 page weekly issue with full color photos - but it's still mostly the same topics - sports, movies, and editorial here or there, jokes, teacher/student profiles and various school news. The one before class elections waso quite entertaining.</p>
<p>Our school also started a political review magazine too - where they get a bunch of guys writing about various topics in the political/international relations scene.</p>
<p>Our school newspaper comes out 5 times a year, but each issue is 20 pages, in black and another color. It's 5 pages for each section (news, opinion, features, and sports). We have our own website that's linked to the school website.</p>
<p>Our high school newspaper came out the first wednesday of each month. It was usually 15-20 pages, all color. It carried several sections such as fashion, sports, politics, school-related stuff, and local news. It also had a special featured section which would be like homecoming in october/prom in april/etc. Its a class period and usually the editors stay after school to work on it.</p>
<p>oh wow thanks guys, keep them coming</p>
<p>also are your newspapers designed like local newspapers? or is it just likea newsletter</p>
<p>Our's is deisgned more like a magazine.</p>
<p>a complete joke. a couple of pages of black and white stapled pages that comes out 3 times a year and says absolutely nothing that's not absolutely inane.</p>
<p>Our school newspaper comes out every month. We talk about everything, mostly school related though, unless something important is happening in our community, country or world. We have common riddles, school events, teacher of the month, bachelor/ette of the month (this is always good for a laugh), clubs that just won something or achieved something great, jokes, advise column, and reviews on recent CD's, movies, games, books etc... , we also have info about our sport teams and some other stuff that varies form issue to issue like current events etc.... It's quite a good paper, and almost everyone of the students read it, which I consider good.</p>
<p>I forgot to mention that we add pictures of students around the school and ask them some common questions, like what will you do over summer, spring break, etc.... It creates awareness among the student body and if their picture was taken, they are more likely to actually look into the paper.</p>
<p>School newspaper is published monthly, with black/white print like regular newspapers do. News cover mostly on events that happen within the school to sometimes outside ones. We have sections like "TOP news" which is the front page, opinion/editorial, fine arts, sports, students/faculty profile, etc. I personally write for the fine arts section.
We also have a private funded political 2-4 page newsletter that is published weekly by a group of students who call themselves conservatives...</p>
<p>ours looks like a real newspaper and is about 16 pages it comes out every two weeks</p>
<p>School newspaper? Don't have one. We have a newsletter that is basically a highlight of recent events (I think it comes out about once each month). It's printed on both sides of a piece of orange full scalp or whatever else the school has lying around. Pretty basic and most are just dropped into recycling bins.</p>
<p>our school newspaper is really good, we win a lot of awards and work really hard to make it pretty nice. it comes out once a month and is usually in black and white though for special issues it comes out with the cover page in color.</p>
<p>Our newspaper comes out quarterly, and is ab out 4-6 pages long (sometimes it comes out 5 times a year). It is usually in black and white, except the last issue was in color this year. </p>
<p>What programs do you use? We use adobe pagemaker.</p>
<p>Ours is a piece of crap. If my best friend wasn't the editor, it seriously wouldn't even exist. I don't know why she bothers so much with it. </p>
<p>They had two writers, my friend and this one other kid who got kicked out of the school for coming dressed in a stolen (genuine) Northwest Airlines pilot uniform, complete with epualets and wings.</p>
<p>So since there's only one writer, it comes out about once a semester instead of the scheduled once a month.</p>
<p>ours come out three times a year. it's in black & white since it's pretty expensive to get it coloured. usually they order 1000 copies (atleast that's what i've heard), enough for all the students. though only half or 3/4 is used/read.</p>
<p>i honestly didn't read it until junior year when i became involved. :/
it's volunteer based so the quality varies a bit. </p>
<p>all in all i think it's an okay paper. </p>
<p>for layout design, we use adobe indesign.</p>
<p>My school doesnt have a newspaper at the moment. It used to have one but then it stopped for some reason 10 years ago. The librarian in my school told me that someone should start a newspaper in the school so I figured that i'd do it. If I wanna start it again, what are the things i'd need to do to get it up and running? Find a writer and an editor and thats about it? </p>
<p>I personally do not have great writing skills so not sure if I could write for the paper. </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Our school newspaper is just a few pages - black and white, that comes out 3-4x a year. It mentions maybe 200 words about each sport that season and pretty boring things and wasted half of its pages on crosswords and messages from students to each other about how they love one another and other things like that. </p>
<p>We have a morning TV program thing and much of what's needed to be said about the school is taken care of then and whatevahhhhh.</p>
<p>jai, get a teacher involve as well. for our school, it's always like that. we need atleast a teacher advisor/supervisor. though ours just let us do whatever we want, he just looks through the paper and sees if there's any objectable articles as well as maintaining the quality i suppose.</p>
<p>i guess you could ask that librarian if she would be willing to help you out, or maybe ask an english teacher.</p>
<p>put out an announcement or ask your principal if they would be willing to spread the word out that you want a paper out. ask english teachers who are good writers and ask them personally. or better, ask your friends who you think are good. it'd be hard to deny that. lol.</p>
<p>good luck with it though. it's always a great experience to be involved with something like this.</p>
<p>A heavily censored piece of work which ends up talking about nothing in particular (I don't care about the new season of the OC, or how people are wearing pink shirts). However, our administration doesn't want anyone to talk about anything that may be mildly offensive, so they force censorship upon it.</p>
<p>Edit: sweet, 400 posts! Took me almost a year, but I've got it!</p>
