About the Phoenix

*While all the information on this page is correct, the rest of this site's pages are no longer updated. To see more recent material from the Phoenix, head on over to our new website.*

The Phoenix is the independent news magazine at Pomperaug, created solely for the PHS community - staff, parents, and especially students. "Independent" means that we are entirely student-run, and that we have no official association with Pomperaug's faculty, staff, or administration. (We're on our own, and we like it!) "News magazine" means that each issue is an eclectic compilation of news, editorials, information, comics, games, and artistic endeavors - plus quite a bit more.

A new issue of the Phoenix is released approximately every two weeks, usually on a Friday.

 

Distribution Locations:

1) Pomperaug High School Cafeteria: Both old and new issues of the Phoenix are available during all lunch waves on the table next to the hot lunch line.
2) Starbucks (Southbury): As you enter, slightly behind you on your left will be a counter with various free publications. Grab a Phoenix!
3) Southbury Public Library: In Southbury, enter the building and look 90 degrees to your left. (It's like a treasure hunt.) The Phoenix will be lying on top of a bookshelf about three rows down, along with other free publications. Alternatively, ask at the circulation desk or reference desk for the location of the free/nonprofit publications.

If you cannot find the Phoenix in one of these places, let us know right away!
