About Us

Bubblegum, blue jeans & The Prowler, all cool since the 1950’s, is Central York High School’s premier news source. The group of students that makes up our staff is comprised of mainly upperclassmen with some new to high school on the staff as well. Students have the option to enroll in Journalism 1, 2, 3 or 4 and are given various responsibilities (staff writer, editor, editor-in-chief) by their experience, application and votes by their peers. For over 60 years we have been reporting the news in its finest and most traditionalist form: print. In addition to our online content, students produce 10-12 print editions each school year.

The Prowler is also part of a larger media organization at the high school called Mundis Mill Media. The newspaper staff is joined by the TV Production staff (CTV) and the yearbook staff to complete this media conglomerate.
