My children have absolutely thrived at Powell for the past 5 years. They enjoy going to school every day, love their teachers, and are on or above grade level in all subjects. The school has an amazing community and regular events to bring people together. The bilingual experience is done well. Powell also pays close attention to social-emotional support and in that aspect is far superior to other schools we have experience with.

We are very excited to learn that on Nov 20th our kid's principal at Powell won the 2014 DCPS Principal of the Year award. We would like to share with potential parents looking at Powell that Ms. Docal is very attentive to the needs of the students, parents, and her staff. She has set a high bar for...
