Powell County High School has been a very adventurous time. We have had many faulty changed to try and find the best fit for our school. I had a very good experience overall. I would like to see more parent envolvment, and more safety regulations put into place.

There are a lot of amazing teachers here that love teaching but there are some that makes the students feel like they want them to fail. The sports teams are pretty good, the coaches have their favorites and that sometimes makes kids not want them to even try-out for the team. The food could be way better there are only a few good selection of food that they serve. The safety is really good, we have two cops that stay in the school though-out the day we have only had a few fights and false threat my four years of being here.

There isn't anything to do with performing arts so nothing interests me too much. All of the teachers are great but our school isn't very clean.
