Amazing school fun they use all of the money that is rasied there back into the student and the CDC program
Posted by a student on 3/19/2026As a student here with autism and depression, this school cares more about image than the kids actually learning. On my IEP it’s said that I’m supposed to have a co teacher in every class I’m in, and they don’t plan on following it at all if my schedule for next semester is true. Aside from one clas
Posted by a student on 10/25/2022In no foreseeable way would I recommend this school for anyone's children, especially those who need special education they try their hardest to take kids that are succeeding off of an IEP despite them still needing the resources that come from having said IEP.
Posted by a parent on 10/25/2022My son is in all honors classes & it's no wonder! He is challenged & nudged towards success & I am very pleased with PHS especially Coach and Teacher Mr. Smith. Mr.Smith is a teacher a parent dreams for they're child to have & I am so thankful my son was taught by him.
Posted by a parent on 3/15/2015I am a Powell alum (class of 2001). I attended college out of state, but I've had the priviledge of returning to Knoxville for my career. While the Powell community is still an excellent town to be a part of, it is no secret that rezoning has certainly changed the dynamic at the high school. I do so

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school not only provides high quality academics, but also teaches ethics and good manners in biblical way. My daughter absolutely loved Temple Academy! We switched a few schools due to our relocations, and she still remembers Temple as her favorite school. If you're looking for a great Christian, conservative school with strong academics at very competitive cost, Temple is your choice. I've do so much research looking for similar schools and I have not found one like it.Parent Review1y ago - First Baptist Academy
