Calling all actors and actresses! Powell Middle School will be putting on a play this spring: “Gallery” by Richard Stuart Dixon, a quirky comedy about a group of middle school students competing to win an art contest at a newly-opened gallery. Auditions will be held after school January 28th, 29th, & 30th, so start preparing a memorized one-minute comedic monologue! Sign-ups are located in Mr. Kelley’s room--Room 1039, downstairs to the right of the north exit. Break a leg!
SAGA will meet Wednesday at 4 pm in Ms KEIRNS room 3058. All are welcome, see you there!
Mrs. Carstensen and Mrs. Erickson want you to join us in congratulating our 17 Brain Bowl students who represented true Powell "pride" at Saturday's Central Regional Brain Bowl Tournament! The competition against many other teams for twelve finalist slots was challenging and invigorating, and students met their opponents with sportsmanship and respect.
Sixth grade and 8th-grade teams worked very hard and did a great job. Please congratulate James Donahue, Leila Kabil, Audrey Le, and Emerson Drost, Warren Dix, Max Ratcliff, Sophia Millner, and Heidi Hucke on their tremendous teamwork. The competition at the 7th-grade level was intense and resulted in our two teams competing in an epic battle against each other in the final championship round.
Addie Newcome, Anna Rivera, Michael Purfield, Gabe Brock and Sean Yilmaz took 2nd place overall. Makenna Shell, Charlie Catel, Luke Schwartz, and Derek Sprague took first place overall for 7th grade. Both seventh-grade teams placed and will be representing us at the State Championship on March 7th at Hamilton Middle School in Denver! Please be sure to congratulate these smart and successful Brain Bowl students.
