About

Where students lead the story.

Mission Statement

The Prowler Press is dedicated to serving as a voice for the student body. Our mission is to provide a platform that sparks dialogue, highlights perspectives often left unheard, and reflects the diversity of our school community. We aim to uphold journalistic integrity while amplifying student voices with honesty, fairness, and creativity.

Purpose of Publication

The purpose of The Prowler Press is to:

• Report news and issues relevant to the student body with fairness and accuracy.
• Provide a space for opinions, ideas, and creative expression.
• Encourage discussion on topics that matter to our school and larger community.
• Showcase the talents, concerns, and voices of our students.
• Build a stronger sense of connection, awareness, and engagement across campus.

Freedom of Expression

As a student publication, The Prowler Press is a forum for free expression. Articles and opinions represent the voices of our student journalists, not necessarily those of the administration, faculty, or adviser. While we reserve the right to decline content that is obscene or violates journalistic standards, we believe in the importance of open dialogue and constructive critique within our community.
