Layout Double Checks

· All By-lines must be the same: By Name Name
· All ‘body’ font must be Calibri
· Except for features, all headers (article titles) must be the same per section. For instance: The opinion editor decides that she likes Arial, so all of her headers would be Arial. If News liked Times New Roman, all of their headers would be TNR.
· All font colors must be the same and black.
· The layout should be the same.

Please double check these before turning in layouts.

New Marking period, New Paper

Okay, the issues got out today and everyone is so excited! First off, I wanted to say that everyone in 7th (and 8th) did a great job.

TO ALL EDITORS

I am going to make a list of things to double-check with the layouts. We had a few minor differences with by-lines and what not, so this is just a pre-caution. ALSO, as soon as your writers say they are done, edit the article. Please don't wait until deadline! Please edit it and send it off to Sam S. ASAP. That would be fantastic and get our paper out sooner. Also, check with your writers frequently to see about article progress and to make sure they are working. That would help. If not, we'll have to send Darian out there....

TO ALL WRITERS

Please, please, please write your articles first thing, so your editors will have an easier job.

Overall, great job guys!
