The Foreword is the student newspaper of Taylor Allderdice High School. A periodical published every five to six weeks, the paper is supported solely by ad sales and is distributed free of charge to all students as well as to faculty, parents, and members of the local Pittsburgh community.

Established in 1927 as a three column wide, subscription newspaper, The Foreword has been a landmark of the high school for more than 84 years and the newspaper of today continues the legacy set forth by those first issues.

The mission of The Foreword is to bring students up-to-date, pertinent news that informs, delights, and engages.

Launched in 2011, theforeword.com is the cutting-edge website of the newspaper. The site is home to all the content in the most recent print papers in addition to a variety of multimedia features including audio clips, videos, slideshows, and a Twitter feed. The website also hosts an archive of the print paper that contains rare issues dating to the 1920s, 30s, and 40s.

The Foreword is the recipient of a first place rating from the Quill and Scroll and a first place award from the Pennsylvania Press Association.
