Teacher educator prepares readies plans arranges situates

School starts in one week. Teachers returned to work today.

We ran one main story and two sidebars, with a few photos.

I had to write three main heds, two jumps, two sub heds and a few photo lead-ins, and never repeat the single point of all of those words: Teachers prepare for school.

Oh how I love small papers.

That's a lot of coverage. I can only imagine what some of the heds were. I've offered a few that I would've tried.

Teachers chalk out school-year plans
For teachers, a return to black boards
Educators gird for hooligan influx
Teachers armed as kid invasion nears
Teachers, students: 'School, again?'
Small arms issued to arriving teachers
Teachers band in gangs for protection
Teachers, students push truce talks
Teachers: Boxes heavy, bastards mean
School year ... blah, blah, blah, blah

I feel your pain. I've worked at a community newspaper for six years, and each year have to write new heds for the same damn things. It gets old trying to be new.
