Powell's Philanthrapy Project
We had such an amazing response to our philanthrapy project last year, raising money for the Sickle Cell Foundation. We have decided to continue this tradition of helping others with another Penny War! This year we want to raise funds for another organization that will impact our Powell community in a positive way. Please use the space below to submit your suggestion for a deserving organization. Our Campus Events Committee will consider all submissions. A blind vote will occur to select the organization we will raise funds for this school year.
*Penny Wars will occur in March* Information to come soon about the Penny Wars.

Jeans for Love
Last week your child should have brought home an envelope and a note explaining Jeans for Love. The last day to purchase passes will be February 13th. We will deliver all gifted passes to our staff on February 14th. If you are in need of more passes, please let us know, the front office has extra copies.
Thank you for always being so supportive of our teachers and staff!
A Note from the Attendance Office
We have noticed a significant increase in students arriving tardy at Powell. If you are driving or walking your child to our campus in the morning, please note that our doors open at 7:30am and tardies are taken by scanning your child’s backpack tag as they pass through our front doors after 8:00am. We realize that our car line can get backed up the closer you arrive to 8:00am so we suggest you make plans to arrive early enough to not only get through the carline, but also early enough that your child enters our doors by 8:00am. We cannot control traffic, nor weather, so please make adjustments to your morning routine so we can cut down on our students habitually arriving late.
Attendance 101- Did you know that parents are requested to call our front office EVERY DAY their child is absent along with the reason for the absence? Many parents let the teachers know but that should not take the place of calling or email the front office at 936-709-1700 or ContactPowell@ConroeISD.net. When you let us know of their absence, we are able to excuse the absence if they are sick, attending a doctor or dentist appointment, or funeral for example. Then, if they were sick and see a doctor, we ask that you send in the doctor’s note upon their return. Letting the teacher know of the absence is helpful for making up missed work but the attendance office may not always receive notes from the teachers during their busy days.
SMART Tags on Buses Coming Soon
The district announced eairler this year that the transportation department will be rolling out the use of SMART tags for all bus riders. We will be implementing this system over the next couple weeks at Powell. Please click the link below for more information about the SMART tag system. You will receive an email from the school district prior to the implementation of the program.
