I love PHS, you get opportunities to explore career paths and the workforce. I was so sad when some of out great teachers retired, some the replacements cannot live up to the previous teachers.

Powell High School is a very safe school. We have small class sizes and very strong academics. We have a variety of sports and other activity options and they are still growing. We do not have a lot of class options and have almost no diversity.

Powell High School is a great place to go to school. I really enjoyed how small and connected the community was and how everybody supported one another throughout each other's journeys. The best part of my experience was the sports and extracurriculars. Going to volleyball games and playing basketball and tennis was definitely the best. There isn't a bad part about this high school. I would like there to be more counselors at Powell High School as I feel that each student does not get enough attention.

The other school they went to did not have the high money per student ratio. It was dirty, scary, and nasty. I am thankful my kids have the opp...

Not a bad school. The teachers are pretty good overall. However, the athletic director/assistant principal is a curmudgeon and the administration office is staffed with power hungry, angry individuals.

Powell High School is filled with mean students who bully each other and power hungry authority figures that choose favorites and pick on others.
