The Gnus is a paper run by the school. The Gnus has changed every year with the high school students running it.
In 2005, The Gnus announced that it would go to a new publishing format. Large issues would be published only four times a year; however, a weekly edition would be posted in public places around the school campus (for example, in bathroom stalls) for the convenience of students and faculty.
