All four of my children have attended Powers. You will not find a better school. The teachers are incredible. It is a loving and safe learning environment.

I love this school! My daughter has been so happy there and the teachers are both tremendously supportive and very creative. It is a lovely, nurturing environment. The parents are also active about helping the school and participating in their children's education--always a plus.

The teachers at Powers are really focused on what is best for your child. The have an excellent reading program that starts in Kindergarten. The music teacher goes out of his way to make learning music fun. The office staff is so friendly and comforting to both the students and their parents. Home cooked lunches from very friendly staff. My daughter loves being a Powers Panda!

Our grandson attends Powers. I am thoroughly impressed with the friendly, professional and dedicated staff I have met. What a wonderful place to go to school. Almost wish I were 7 again.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

Oops! We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Public and charter school test scores for most states come from the state Department of Education. The most common reasons we might not have this data are either that not enough students took the test or that the school was recently opened, and its scores have not yet been reported.
