It's only the second day of school but you can bet that teachers are already diving right into teaching. 

A perfect example of that can be seen in Mr. Kadish's ASL classes. He loves to help students start learning ASL immediately by not talking at all during the first few days in class. He wants to show students that they can learn without their voice.

Here are some photos of  students engaging in the learning process. Thanks Mr. Kadish! 

At Payson High School, we are so excited that the school year has finally begun. Our faculty and staff have been anxiously preparing for our students with enthusiasm, care, and skill. And it's finally show time! Our hallways are now full of the expectant faces of tomorrow's leaders. At PHS, we will give them a 1st class education. Our theme this year is "We Walk As Lions!" Together, we will make this school year a masterpiece. 

Let's do this, Lions!
