[quote=Anonymous]OP, I do not have a child at Powell but live in the neighborhood. One thing I can tell you is that Powell has not been viewed on this board as a desirable school for very long. The feedback you are going to receive here will apply, most likely, to children who will be in kindergarten next year. My daughter is in PK4 at another EOTP school and Powell was mentioned as an up and coming school for SY13-14. This year, their waitlist was super long. Maybe the hype will turn out just to be hype, maybe not. I personally think that we have reached a tipping point of gentrification EOTP that schools which were not even considered by middle class people now have many more middle aged people in the early grades. Powell is one of these schools but it's not the only one EOTP. I know people who send their children at Powell who are really happy. One family are native Spanish speakers who chose Powell over other area Spanish programs (Bancroft, Bruce Monroe, Cleveland). [/quote]
