Powdersville High school has a very sophisticated educational course. The methods of teaching are a bit simpler and easier to comprehend. With this being said the administration as well as students aren't open-minded. Everything is black and white, I believe that there is potential with the extermination of these simple-minded individuals. Overall the school modern and has the room to expand with the great minds rushing into the community.
Powdersville High has high set standards. The goal there is to see as many students as they can succeed. Overall, I would say my favorite part of my high school experience has been being a part of the marching band. We are a successful group of focused individuals and we constantly strive to make our performance as best as it can be. Plus, we love to laugh and have fun. Powdersville has been quite consistent with what they ask of us as students and I would like to believe they raise well-rounded students.
I enjoyed my time at Powdersville. The teaching staff and administration is wonderful. I've also had the privilege of being a student athlete all four years I have attended. The classrooms are filled with an average of 22 students and it is great having a smaller class because it makes the learning experience more personal. Also we have a beautiful, book filled library with an entire wall of windows looking out to the mountains. The only thing I wish would be improved at Powdersville High School is that there would be more student involvement at events that are held outside of school hours.
