Education
The Powell Point School was transferred from Kendleton to a neighboring black settlement in the 1890s. The school got its name from its position on the Elizabeth Powell land grant. It was listed on county maps in the 1930s and early 1990s, even though it joined the Kendleton ISD.
Today, Powell Point is served by the Lamar Consolidated Independent School District (LCISD). Students are zoned to Beasley Elementary School in Beasley, Wright Junior High School (grades 6-8), and Randle High School. The designated community college for LCISD is Wharton County Junior College.
Previously, Kendleton Independent School District (KISD) operated Powell Point Elementary School in the community and served elementary school residents. Beginning in 1985 LCISD served secondary school students in the KISD territory.
