Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My granddaughter goes there and she is a 4.0 student. It is a great school. She is very well rounded and very bright. It keeps her challenged.
Parent participation is phenomenal. From my daughter's class parents alone we have one mother who started a class garden program and school farmer's market, one who heard about cuts to PE and is starting a fundraiser to save the program (the PE teacher, btw is the most amazing I've come across), one mother who started a school-wide clothes swap, and another who is organizing beauticians to start a hair-cutting fundraiser. We're so thrilled to be a part.

H. Clarke Powers is a fabulous elementary school. Teachers, principal and staff are focused on the education, growth, health and happiness of each student. Respect and caring is nurtured among the students. There is tremendous parent involvement and collaboration with the teachers.

My son was a part of the very first class of H. Clarke Powers. It was a wonderful experience for him and for my wife and I. Glenn Lockwood is the best Principal in Placer County....I have no idea what 'submitted by a parent' is talking about.

—Submitted by a parent
We moved to Loomis 1 year ago. My child (as a new student) was welcomed with open arms from teachers, principal, office personell, students and parents. The Principal is very involved and caring. The parents are great and very involved and the students are the best behaved students I have every seen. The leadership at this school is outstanding.
—Submitted by Michelle Richards, a parent
Principal knocked our socks off when he spent an hour of his time to give us a personal tour of his school. School is new and in beautiful rural yet convenient setting. Kindergarten teacher is top-notch. I don't sense the 'clique' issues parents often complain about at other schools. Quality of education is outstanding.
—Submitted by Brad Suchomel, a parent
Principal & Teachers are fantastic! Very involved with the children and school programs. We have been very happy at H. Clarke Powers.
—Submitted by Jacqueline Lopes, a parent
Principal is very involved in all aspects of this school. Quality teachers throughout each grade level. Parent participation lacking slightly.

In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.
