The Port Light is Port Chester High School’s new student-led newspaper. We aim to give Port Chester students a voice to give their opinion, express themselves, and talk about what they are passionate about.
Every two weeks, on Mondays, the The Port Light news website will be releasing a variety of articles, reports, and feature pieces written and edited by our own PCHS alumni. Once a month, when possible, the newspaper will be releasing a physical version of our newspaper.
How To Get Involved
Whether you are a part of our Port Light staff or not, other students can get the chance to participate in the newspaper. By providing photographs not captured by our photography staff, submitting a feature article, or recommending ideas to the staff, everyone is welcome to help The Port Light.
We want to hear from you, the audience!
