Powell County High School Reviews
Rating 3.3 out of 5 67 reviews
The school has incredible staff and one-of-a-kind teachers. It's always clean thanks to our custodial staff, and fun events are always ongoing. It unfortunately has very little in the ways of technological and computers classes.
PCHS was a moderately good school given the size and funding provided. My biggest complaint would be the extracurricular programs were extremely wanting. The arts programs were nearly non-existent. Sports were seemingly underfunded and grossly under encouraged. The teachers were hit or miss when it came to quality with many of them seemingly phoning it in, while others were clearly involved and cared about the education and futures of the students. The facilities were top notch with a storied historical building and ample on and off campus facilities for specialty education (i.e. the school farm). One of my biggest complaints was the lack of meal options. The school has no cafeteria and while the town's elementary school did offer meals it's distance from the school made it difficult to utilize with out owning a vehicle. In all the experience the was not negative, but Powell County High School has much left wanting and that can be improved upon.
I had plenty of opportunities to further my education that AP classes and dual credit classes. I was able to compete on multiple sports teams and be involved in multiple clubs and student council while not being overworked. The teachers helped me reach almost every goal that I presented them with.
