About Us

The Prepster is a continuously updated, student-run newspaper that brings together the voices of prep schools from across the country. Updated daily, The Prepster is a dynamic platform that showcases the work of our partner schools’ student-run newspapers, ensuring that fresh content is always at your fingertips. We are driven by a deep belief in the power of student journalism—not just to inform, but to inspire change, to connect communities, and to challenge the status quo.

Our Mission

The Prepster is guided on the following principles:

• We strive to uphold the highest standards of accuracy, objectivity, and fairness in every story we publish.
• We believe in the right of every student journalist to report on and offer their opinions about any topic, including those that may be controversial or unpopular.
• We will never publish content that is obscene, libelous, or harmful to the physical and material stability of our school communities.
• Our editorial decisions will not be subject to prior restraint, review, or censorship. We are committed to editorial independence.
• Staff members have a responsibility to learn and follow the legal and ethical guidelines of responsible journalism.
• The Editor-in-Chief assumes full responsibility for the publication and the integrity of its content.
  At The Prepster, we believe in the power of student journalism to shape conversations, hold institutions accountable, and provide a platform for an array of voices across the prep school community.
