Powell Elementary School

The admin at the front desk are so incredibly rude and condescending. Strange...I pay their salaries with my taxes and their jobs exist to serve me and my children, not vice versa. If you are not Korean, don’t move into this school boundary.

This school allows an opportunity for students outside of the zone to be part of their Korean immersion program. They embrace learning not just of the language, but as well the culture. The school environment is very focused to the well being of the children as well their education. My daughter is now a third grader and we have seen with all the staff their invested focus and time to help the students achieve all subjects. We truly enjoy being part of Colin Powell.

I have a son that attends this school. I think the school is well over the projected 50% of the Asian population and caters accorgingly. This school sent out a survey to find out which secondary language may possibly be taught this year 2014-2015. Soon thereafter, we learned Colin Powell wasn't one of the schools chosen. Shame on Fairfax County school district! A secondary language should be offered in all schools. And lastly but most importantly, my son is not interested in learning the Korean language!

Mr. B is the light of my soul. He has helped me in ways that i cannot repay him. Best man you will come across by far.
