Many employers across a broad range of jobs won’t even consider an applicant without a diploma, and those students who decide, further down the road, to continue their education at a university, community college or trade school will often have to get their GED first before they can even consider applying. Simply stated, finishing high school and earning a diploma affords a student opportunities that otherwise wouldn’t be theirs. And the fact that our local high school is churning out graduates at a high rate is a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone at PHS and the SLC, from the administration on down. PHS Principal Jim Kuhn said teachers are constantly striving to “better define what the real world will expect students to know when they leave the classroom,” and that is reflected by these recent graduation numbers. There is always more work to be done, but we would be remiss if we didn’t congratulate everyone in the Powell school district who has worked tirelessly to keep kids in school and help them in any way they can as they work toward a diploma. And students deserve recognition as well, for putting in the work and doing their part to ensure their futures will be successful ones in whatever they choose to pursue. Congratulations on a job well done, PHS and SLC students, teachers, administrators and staff. Your efforts are appreciated.
