This year has been a difficult year. Most seniors already began struggling the second week that school began.

To all of my little Pumas, I am absolutely delighted to have had the privilege of watching you all grow up. I've seen some unfocused and not so very motivated students find their individual paths. I've witnessed snotty little seventh-graders become graciously polite and accepting human beings. I've had the plea...

To the Class of 2017, Do you remember the feeling you had when you first set foot in this building? How different it was from the Junior High.

Students should be allowed to know what their class rank is at any given time in their high school careers.

An aspect about Stroudsburg School District that could be improved is the dress code. All the friends that I speak to can agree that the fact that they cannot wear hoodies is frustrating. Hoodies provide a feeling of comfort. They also keep us warm when sometimes the school is very cold from the wintry ai...

Iai??i??ve only been in Stroudsburg for a few months, and I think itai??i??s a great school.
