Summary

H. Clarke Powers Elementary is a well-regarded K-8 school serving about 495 students in the Loomis Union Elementary district, a high-performing area where it consistently earns a 4-star rating and achieves test scores significantly above the state average.

When compared to other schools in its own district, H. Clarke Powers performs solidly but is in the middle-to-lower tier among its peers; for example, it trails higher-achieving schools like Loomis Basin Charter and Placer Elementary in core subjects. The school's chronic absenteeism rate, while improved from pandemic highs, is also higher than these top district performers. However, it compares favorably to many schools in the neighboring Rocklin Unified district, such as Twin Oaks Elementary, though it is notably outperformed by Valley View Elementary.

Key insights for parents include notable performance differences between grade levels, with third-grade scores being a particular area for improvement while eighth graders excel. Science is a relative weakness compared to other subjects at the school. The school's statewide ranking has slightly declined in recent years, even as test scores have held steady, suggesting other schools are improving at a faster pace. Addressing chronic absenteeism and early-grade curriculum could help the school close the gap with the highest performers in its district.
