Other High School Newspapers

1.
 The cover of a newspaper called the mustang has no text, only an image of a squid. I like the simplicity of it and would probably read the content inside of it. I think that they could do with putting some text of some sort or a title of the volume somewhere in there but the avant garde approach

2.
 The West High School in Davenport, IA has a very strange article on sexual assault as well as a profile of a crying girl on the front page. It popped right out at me because of the way that they had blurred her face was strange and also the text was really big and bold so I had to investigate.

3.
So this headline is from a different paper but there is this article in Viking Saga called "The Typical Teenager" and you've probably heard me gut laughing at the whole shebang. I want to read every word.

4.
There are no stories on the front page of my favorite one.

5.
Honestly most feature the name of the paper, date and edition number at the top, with some sort of banner or big blowup image front and center with the date and maybe a few columns on the side. Many have small columns on the side. There aren't that many serif fonts left and much to my chagrin

6.
Some of the newspapers are trying a new approach. Quite a few of these publications just have a cover page and then the actual bile starts inside, while some of them just go right for the news with those typical daily newspaper-type front pages.

7.
Honestly other than the significant lack of quality in any of the publications I saw, there appeared to be many similarities in format, placement, and style of presentation.
