Dan Powell's Weekly Newsletter
Week of August 10th - August 14th
Greeting Dan Powell Families! Thank you for your participation during Howdy Week! We enjoyed seeing the festive attire worn by each of our scholars! Our students have been thriving in their learning experiences with fun and engaging lessons! We appreciate you for ensuring they are at school everyday and on time!

There are no walk ups during arrival drop off and dismissal pick up. We appreciate your continued partnership in all of our endeavors and wish you a wonderful week! Let's go, Bulldogs! 💜 #BulldogPride #GameonBulldogs #EvermanISD #EvermanBulldogs
