The teachers at Clear Creek are very friendly and concerned with student success!

The school has great teachers, but they seemingly don't too do much about the students that are picked on, they're a bunch of fun, large school-basis full of bullies, and but some of the teachers may or may not be rude.

Re-located to Arizona. Moved back to Oregon because of the excellent schools. My daughter has been at Clear Creek for 3 years and I have nothing but good things to say.

My child is on an IEP. She has done obismally in school this year. She is smart enough to understand the material in each of her subjects, I just feel that she is not having the material presented to her in a way that she can understand and be able to complete the homework that is required. Children have different learning styles and that needs to be addressed. The biggest problem is that there aren't enough teachers to bring down the student/teacher ratio. Therefore children, like my daughter, suffer and are left behind for easier to teach students.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Oregon used the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (OAKS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math; in grades 4, 7 and 10 in writing; and in grades 5, 8 and 10 in science. The OAKS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Oregon. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
