Matthew, the next PMS PTA board meeting is on this coming Thursday, August 23 at 4 pm. I'm not on the board this year, but in prior years we always met in the library.

Thanks, Matthew. I'm serving as Legislative Chair for Powell High's PTSA this year, so I plan to suggest that our three Powell PTAs collaborate on a Commmunity Candidate Forum for 6th district commission candidates and 2nd/3rd district school board candidates. Assuming I get it off the ground (and I expect to), I guess we'd schedule it for sometime after the petition filing period closes on December 13 (probably in January). We'll contact ALL candidates in these races, of course.

Best,
Tamara

It's good to be here!!

Hello all,


I know this doesn't have much to do with schools, or maybe it does, but I have a problem. Me and my son Turner were at the Powell Station Park last week enjoying the sun and the water fun fountains when all of a sudden a Knox County Sheriff's pickup truck pulls into the park. The truck parks about 40 or 50 yards away and four plain clothed prisoners get out of the back and begin to approach the park. The prisoners began picking up trash and working on the facilities, and of
