It depends on the context in which you use it.

Used in its proper context, it's a word for a place or state of great confusion, disorder, or destruction; a condition of torment; the place where the wicked are sent after death. Perfectly acceptable if there is a good reason that something in a school paper is referring to conditions such as these (though highly unlikely).

A quote attributed to General Sherman from the American Civil War, "It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell." You can't get a better summation of the horrors of war than this.

Writing for the school paper is a learning experience and a position of trust. It should teach a student some wisdom for what is appropriate or not. To use a word simply to provoke will only gain very brief gratification, and is certainly not a demonstration of wisdom.
