The year of 2016 is the year that all students attending Payson High School have the opportunity to have a Chromebook to take home. "This is such an awesome opportunity for our students," Mrs. Searle says. She continues, "Students can explore and learn like never before. For many students this opens doors that have been shut in the past. I will be telling my students' grandkids about this one day."
The annual PTSA Tree Festival was on November 29 during the boys basketball game.
Carma Heimuli, PTA President, said, “This was an amazing year and we will be giving over $1200 back to the student council for Sub for Santa! Thank you again, every single tree was unique, well planned and beautiful! Can't wait to see what you all come up with for next year!”
The choir at Payson High has been practicing Christmas songs for a while to prepare for their annual Christmas concert. Year after year, the participants put on a show for all to hear. This year will be like no other, with new voices and experienced singers unified to enhance the experience.
Carolers have been an ongoing tradition for years, choir is basically a cooler version of caroling. Instead of standing out in the cold awkwardly smiling at singing visitors, you get to come to our warm school to do so!

November 11, a day of remembrance. Payson High honored the many veterans in the school and community with a Veteran’s Day Assembly.
The assembly consisted of many student speakers and Mr. Kyle Hill, a teacher at Payson High. The students talked on how we need to honor the veterans who sacrificed so much for so little. They talked about how the country was formed and respecting the sacrifice made for our country. They also talked about their amazing trips back east where they were able to visit many historical sites.
November is a time of thanks, and the Broadcast Journalism staff wanted to highlight some of the things we are all thankful for here at Payson High School. It is a very diverse edition of the magazine, showcasing many of the great things going on at PHS. We have videos and articles on some of the great fine art programs, clubs, sports teams, and some of the amazing students here at PHS. Check it out at the link below.http://pub.lucidpress.com/PHSNOV2016/
