Mr. Powell's dedication
to teaching is reflected
in the true work ethic
that I have been able
to observe along with
the concern he has for
his students. Robert is
honest, sincere, hard-
working and a man of
great character and
integrity.

Mr. Powell has been a
dedicated teacher at
Katy High School..........
....and I have found
him to be a highly
responsible and
competent individual
who has performed
above and beyond the
call of his duties. He
accepts responsibility
squarely and always
goes that "extra inch"
with the good of the
students and school in
mind.

His enthusiasm for
teaching and genuine
caring for teachers and
students is only
surpassed by his
instructional talents and
creativity

I recommend him for
serious consideration
