Hey, do you like delectable chili with crackers, cheese, and sour cream? Then come to Powell on Nov. 7th for our annual chili cook-off! It's a fun time to show gratitude by tasting and voting on the most delicious recipe. Additionally, if you have a chili recipe that was passed down from generation to generation you can show gratitude to your ancestors by making that recipe and entering it into the chili cook-off contest! It's free and fun so come on Nov. 7th!
Student council will be collecting new school supplies all next week for a school in Uganda. Please help support this effort by bringing new school supplies to your lunch hour.

Your Puma 7th and 8th grade wrestling squad had their first match of the season last night at Goddard Middle School. People, your team looked strong out there! We saw many impressive matches last night, but most importantly, our athletes showed courage and pride on the mat. With more than 50 total bouts, there are far too many wins from last night to list them all, but some of your peers that had especially exciting victories were: Jason Nelson, Collin Lovett, Cruz Young, Ryan Fisher, Mitch Schriefer, Lance Derby, Jackson Pumphrey, and Braeden Sisler.
We have a large and talented group of athletes, so if you want to see a thrilling combat sport in person, come cheer on all the athletes tomorrow after school when we face the Newton Knights during the chili cook off!
The 8th Grade girls B team took on the Newton Knights last night and came away with a 17-5 win! The team played suffocating defense and moved the ball around well. Evelyn Jenkins led the way with 6 points for the Pumas, while Alex Perez, ELena Lupo, Rowan Hughs and Nora Calvanese all also scored. The B team improved to 3 wins and no losses on the year! Great job, ladies!
