I would say my overall experience with powell highschool was amazing. I had quite a few teachers that were amazing and just really made highschool a better experience! The always helped me even when i wasnt in their class anymore and would never turn me away when i needed them whether it was for an essay or a personal matter.

I have had a great experience at my high school through our music program. I look forward to going to band everyday and I participate in everything band related. Our band teachers are good at there jobs and are willing to get stuff done. They focus on the students getting better at their instruments. All the students involved in the band program are disciplined and are willing to commit to the activities. I enjoy our band program at the school and I see it taking off in the next few years.

My son is in all honors classes & it's no wonder! He is challenged & nudged towards success & I am very pleased with PHS especially Coach and Teacher Mr. Smith. Mr.Smith is a teacher a parent dreams for they're child to have & I am so thankful my son was taught by him.

I am a Powell alum (class of 2001). I attended college out of state, but I've had the priviledge of returning to Knoxville for my career. While the Powell community is still an excellent town to be a part of, it is no secret that rezoning has certainly changed the dynamic at the high school. I do so...
