Other high school newspapers

1. My favorite newspaper front page is titled "the lake".
2. It immediately grabbed my attention because of the bright neon colors.
3. My favorite headline from this newspaper is titled "Raise Your Voice" because it's the main story and it looks interesting.
4. There are no stories on the front page.
5. I noticed that almost all newspaper front pages have a title, picture, and a subtitle.
6. The design, title, subtitle, and size vary on the front pages of different newspapers.
