Help with newspaper for school...?

I am thinking of starting a newspaper for my school, but not an official one, just one with me and some friends. I actually want it to be more magazine like. We plan to either give it out or email it to our classmates. I'm thinking email would be better.

Do you think this would work?
If so, what catorgories do you think we should have (news, advice, fasion, sports, health, etc) ?
What is some advice that you think would make it work?
Also, is emailing it a good idea?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks to everyone who answered...everything helped.

It will be much cheaper to treat it like an e-zine (zine is short for small magazine) than it would be to publish it. Paper and office supply costs are ridiculous and you do not yet have a clear base for your zine (I'm calling it a zine, but newspaper) so it probably would not be profitable to go that route.

You should cover everything you want to see in a magazine then you should ask close friends what they want to see. As people read it, ask them for suggestions for new features, but definitely start with what YOU want to read.

Don't stress out though. Make it a zine that's once a month or every two weeks. Once every week, unless you just have oodles of time, is not wise. It will suck the fun right out of your idea.

Hope you have fun.
