The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This high school has been the best. I love the atmosphere and the teachers and how diverse it is. I love the band program here, which I have been a part of for 6-7 years now, I have met almost all of my friends there. It has helped me feel like I am a big part of something. I have a family there. I will miss Powdersville when I leave. It has left a huge impact on my life.

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.
