Of the first years I would agree Pyrrha 100%. She's noted for winning tournaments in the past, she fights a whole team on her own (While CRDL is most definitely weaker than our other two teams, they all still passed all of the same requirements to get into the school, so they should at least be the expected average.)

Her display of potential power in the food fight was also quite high, and I doubt she was going all out there. (as it was a play fight) So she might be able to do even more with her power. No other first year has shown that kind of potential.

All over, just from what we've seen, I would say Glynda is the most powerful (I doubt she's actually the strongest, just going off what they've shown us). She can restore whole rooms and buildings back to their orriginal form, and swat grimm without looking at them, or putting much effort into it.

I expect there is some kind of limit to her power and that there are others (at least Ozpin) that are stronger than her. But no one has shown that yet.
