The new Payson Page Turners Bookstagram account is live!

On this account, there is a Google Forms link for students to submit reviews on the books they are reading for the opportunity to be featured on the account. The purpose of this is to have the Reading Challenge featured more consistently and effectively throughout the school community and to also have our school's readers join the community of book reviewers and bloggers on social media. (Teachers can submit as well.)
