Our Commitment to School Newspapers

Makemynewspaper offers all the design tools, advice and the lowest prices for school newspaper printing and online publishing ever to schools, pre-schools, universities and educational institutions everywhere. Now, even on small budgets, by offering free design cloud software, schools can publish their very own newspaper, give their students a voice, promote journalism among the student body, and keep parents and the community informed and involved.

MakeMyNewspaper offers all the tools you need to make a school newspaper in one place.

Our School Headquarters is divided into six sections of importance to organize, publish, and print a school newspaper.

  • Free Cloud Designer - We provide full design, desktop publishing software that works in the cloud and is available to use, free, for any school. Along with the Designer, we offer hundreds of templates that are fully customizable to your school's needs. It works in the cloud, your browser, so there is nothing to download and students have access to their projects from any computer with an internet access--even at home.
  • School Newspaper Printing Services - We can accommodate large orders or very small orders. This gives schools the flexibility to order the quantity they need, when they need them. Our prices are very low, giving even low-budget schools options to print their very own newspaper.
  • eNewspaper Publishing - Along with our traditional print services, we offer a range of digital options for displaying and distributing your newspaper. Schools who want to take advantage of our Design software, but don't currently want a printed product, can now publish digitally--or, like many schools, do both.
  • Journalism Center- We offer many articles, helps and guides to the process of journalism as it pertains to newspapers. Learn how to write a news article, a feature story, or an editorial. Learn reporting techniques, and so much more.
  • Graphic Design Center - Design and layout is important to the appearance of your newspaper. We have many guides on layout and design techniques that can help your graphic artists in laying out and making a newspaper.
  • Management Resource Center - Specifically for teacher advisers and editors, these resources help for all things organizational and managerial of running a newspaper. Learn how to start a newspaper from the ground up or simply learn how to organize briefs for your writers.

To print a school newspaper or publish online, our School Headquarters is all you need--and more--when it comes to a School Newspaper. Students and teacher advisers alike will find the tools and resources here invaluable.

What Schools Are Saying...

We give out the newspaper to over 200 students. We don’t get a ton of feedback, but I know a few parents and colleagues send in notes and emails – they are truly impressed by what our middle school students do. The product is put together entirely by 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. I actually have a 6th grade girl who has designed every page of the three editions we’ve produced this school year. I think our families are quite impressed with the product. The day before the hard copies are sent home we email the online edition to all our families. I got 2 emails back the other day on our latest edition. We must be doing something good because current and former parents have funded our newspaper efforts for four years! We got a few compliments after one of our boys wrote about Colin Kaepernick and how he wasn’t standing for the National Anthem. Parents were very impressed with the passion of the writer and how powerful his opinion column was. I think my school is very happy with the product and services you provide. We’ve done everything from a 4-page to 8-page to even two, 16-point sections this school year. It seems our designer continues to push for bigger and better things. I truly feel our school newspaper has really evolved in the four years we’ve been doing it. I really love makemynewspaper.com. I wish I had some pictures of my students in action, but I don’t at this time. I will try to get you some soon! Thanks for making our middle school a better place! I’m proud to brag that we put out a school newspaper with middle school students. You don’t see that everywhere!

—Brian Waddle, Forest Ridge Academy

 

Our newspaper is the only student run paper in our school district so, naturally, it is very well received! I take the articles and format them to the templates...and the templates are very easy to use. We have been using MakeMyNewspaper for 3 years now and will continue as long as we have a student council to run it! Because this is a Title I elementary school with at least 60% free and reduced lunches, every issue is a success story. The kids have had the opportunity to interview a senator, superintendents, teachers and staff and have worked directly with the foundation that offers art and music in schools (SMMEF). It's been lots of fun to see kids working so hard to create something very special.

— Ashley Ryf, Will Rogers Learning Community

 

We have gotten many positive remarks on the paper from both parents and students. They like that it looks like a "real' newspaper vs. the 8 1/2 x 11 print outs students used to receive. We plan to continue using your company - I'm happy you're not printing only two days per week. Historically, our school paper was never handed out to the entire student body, only the students in journalism club. It is now being delivered to 300 families. Our principal uses the paper as a hand-out to families touring the school and talks about our club as one of the enrichment programs offered. The professional quality of the paper really makes a good impression. In addition, because of the buzz we've been getting, the journalism club has more than doubled in size since 2015 (started with 10 students and have grown to 26) which is when we switched to your company.

— Kathy, St. Finn Barr Catholic School

 

Good morning, The newspaper is received well. People love that it actually looks like a real newspaper. The eNewspaper is wonderful! We actually put it on our school website. I actually started the journalism program at my school three years ago and we have used your site to order our papers since day one!

— Bobbi Havers, Community Academy of Philadelphia

 

Students and families loved the newspapers and we're working on getting together our second addition as we speak. I should have done a better job taking pictures of folks reading the newspaper the day of (not only to share with you but also to put on our school's bulletin board!) and will make sure to do so the next time we publish an edition. I know anecdotally that the mother of the author of the cover story framed the newspaper -- at least one of your papers is hanging proudly on the wall in a home in Boston! We have a small team of writers so it's slow going getting together the second edition, but as soon as we have it ready I'll be sure to use makemynewspaper.com to print.

We use the newspaper for our monthly school newspaper that is called The Pony Express. I have my students put together the paper, with my my assistance. What I love about the website is that it is so easy to use. The kids by this points are pretty much experts at it. The people that we send it to around our community love the newspapers that they receive in the mail each month. We have gotten so many compliments as far as how neat and professional the papers look.

— Krista Ruxston, Silver Lake School

   

I have been very happy with my products this past school year and you have fabulous customer support! All of my questions have been answered in a well communicated way, and I appreciate that! I switched from using Adobe Pagemaker for our paper last year because it was so outdated and difficult for the kids to use. I love your design program.

— Aubrey Deaton, Newspaper Adviser for Ravenna High School

   

I just wanted to say that the order we placed came out looking fantastic!!! Everyone loved it!!

— Alexander, Newspaper Adviser for New Hope Academy

 

As the faculty adviser of The Spartan Chronicle, I would like to thank Makemynewspaper.com on my students' behalf for choosing us as a feature paper! Your layout program is a great asset to our paper, very easy to use and affordable. Thank you!

—Alicia Beth, The Spartan Chronicle
