Summary:
Moore High School is the sole public high school serving grades 9-12 in the small town of Moore, Montana. With an enrollment of just 28 students, the school has struggled to maintain consistent academic performance, ranking in the bottom half of high schools statewide. While the school's English Language Arts scores are above the state average, its math and science scores lag significantly behind, suggesting a need to focus on improving instruction in these critical subjects.
Despite relatively high per-student spending of $26,093, Moore High School's overall performance, as measured by its statewide ranking and School Digger rating, has declined over the years, dropping from 70th out of 122 high schools in 2010-2011 to 111th out of 182 high schools in 2024-2025. This raises questions about the efficiency and effectiveness of the school's resource allocation, particularly given its small size and the unique challenges that may come with serving such a small student population.
While the data provides a snapshot of Moore High School's performance, further investigation would be needed to fully understand the drivers behind the school's strengths and weaknesses. By addressing the gaps in math and science instruction and exploring ways to optimize resource allocation, the school may be able to improve its overall academic outcomes and better serve the students and families of the Moore community.
