Powers Catholic High School
Luke M. Powers Catholic High School (Powers Catholic, PCHS, or P-Cat), frequently referred to as simply Powers, is a private, Roman Catholic, co-educational high school located in Flint, Michigan, in Metro Detroit. Powers Catholic was established in 1970 under the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lansing and bears of name of Luke M. Powers, a Villanova University educated pastor in Flint from 1929 to 1966. The school enjoys consistent leadership and a strong academic reputation within a faith-supportive school community.
==Overview==
After 40 years at its original location just north of Flint in Mount Morris Township, Powers relocated to downtown Flint for the 2013-14 school year. Flint is the largest city and county seat of Genesee County and was the birthplace of General Motors in 1908. The new location is a picturesque wooded property located immediately off I-69 from the Hammerburg Road exit 135. The more centralized location, in the center of Genesee County, and its proximity to the intersections of I-69, M-21, US 23, I-75, and I-475, makes for more ideal commutes for families living in Fenton, Linden, Grand Blanc, Lapeer, Owosso, Holly and Clarkston. The new campus boasts 57-acres on a hill, with historic Fay Hall serving as the main academic building. Over $15 million was spent restoring Fay Hall and adding a 75,000-square-foot addition containing a gymnasium, chapel, library, theater and media center. Powers shares a campus with the Michigan School for the Deaf, as part of a 36 million dollar development approved in 2010.
Powers claims a tradition of diversity and has worked for decades to enable qualified students from all over the region to attend. Cardinal Timothy Dolan has called for all Catholic schools to be “strong, accessible, affordable ... owned by every parish, supported by every Catholic, available to every child.” Powers devotes over $1 million annually to financial aid assistance for socio-economic diversity at the school. Currently, Powers draws students from Genesee, Shiawassee, Saginaw, Lapeer, Livingston and Oakland County. Prominent K-8 feeder schools include: St. Pius X (Flint), St. John Vianney (Flint), Holy Rosary (Flint), St. Robert (Flushing), Holy Family (Grand Blanc), St. John (Fenton), St. Paul (Owosso), Our Lady of the Lakes (Waterford), and Bishop Kelly (Lapeer). Fostering the growth of the region's Catholic primary and secondary schools is Cornell University graduate Bill Haley, the executive director of Genesee County Catholic Schools. Total enrollment at Powers for 2015-16 is expected to surpass 650 students.
