The Lasso is a tight-knit group of individuals who split their time either perusing the hallways for a scoop, or burning the midnight oil in last minute layout additions. While the Lasso may seem like your normal student newspaper it is far from the ordinary, filled with non-superfluous articles tackling the heart of issues in high school. Whether it is an in-depth feature on AIDS education, or a satire on the attendance policy, if something happens in the George Mason or Falls Church Community, Lasso knows. If it affects the student population or school community the Lasso is there. Covering not only your typical high school subjects of sports, school events, and the pressures of high school.

Lasso staffers have been known to plant dollar bills in the hallway, or tackle the controversy of improperly disposed recycled materials. The key to our paper is not trendy articles, or flashy graphics; the heart of this paper is the reporters’ extroirdinaire. The students who sacrifice their time and sanity in order to produce a publication worthy of the title the Lasso.
