The students at Lake Ridge High School all knew the pejorative nickname other area schools labeled them with. In the 2018 Fidelity, the Lake Ridge staff was determined to prove that the name “Fake Ridge” should never apply to their school. The prideful theme of “Can’t Fake This” took hold. On the opening and closing spreads, as well as the division pages, the word “real” was accentuated in larger type and color. The coverage is chronological, and filled with genuine stories about the accomplishments of Lake Ridge students, but also setbacks. As the editors put it, “we show it all because we have nothing to hide.”
