This year Payson High School is offering a book challenge to help broaden students’ literary horizons. To complete this challenge you will need to read twenty-four books this school year. Each English teacher will be requiring that you read at least two books a term for a class grade. That means you will need to read at least eight books by the end of the year. That helps you get at least a third of the challenge done.
The Humanities classes had the opportunity to attend a field trip, exploring some of the local art exhibits, on Tuesday September 13th.
Did you know that 17% of the PHS student body shares Hispanic heritage? September 15 is the beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs through October 15. During this important month, we recognize the valuable historical and cultural contributions from those of Hispanic heritage to the broader fabric of our community.
Homecoming week is next week, September 12-17th. There's lots of fun events happening. You can check the school calendar and our Instagram for more information:
Thursday night's Week 5 matchup was between Timpanogos(4-0) and Payson(2-2). The Lions got off to a hot start scoring on their first drive. Just 13 seconds of game time after Jaxon Bulkley opened the scoring with a 1-yard touchdown dive, Dylan Wall returned an interception 22 yards for another score to double Payson's score.
Students at PHS participated in Club Rush today, September 7th, during lunch time. For more information on our clubs, check our club page here. You can find more pictures on our school Instagram account, @payson_lions.
School will be closed on Monday, September 5th, 2022 as we celebrate Labor Day. Enjoy your long weekend and stay safe, PHS!
