About the Pepperbox…

Legend has it that the Pepperbox originated in the 1930s, when Arcata High had just moved to the current campus. There was a box in the library called the "Pep box," where students put in suggestions for teachers and administration. This box also happened to be a used pepper (the spice) box. When the Arcata High Student newspaper was founded, it was appropriately given its current name, "the Pepperbox".

Last year, journalism was cut as a class and the Pepperbox ran as a club. Because of the hardworking, dedicated Pepperbox staff and support from the Arcata Community, jounalism was reinstated as a class for the 2011 - 2012 year.

The class setting has allowed Pepperboxers to produce longer issues more often. For the second semester, production has shifted to a monthly basis. Expect to see issue four soon!
